This happens mostly while I am in the editing window, but not always. The specfic moments I can remember the program crashing are while editing a transition, splitting a video or audio file, adding effects, while editing key frames, during rendering, while dragging a video or audio file to the timeline, adding a file to the media library, etc. There doesn't appear to be a rhyme or reason to it and I will go long stretches with no crashes only to have the program go on a crashing spree where I can't edit at all without being booted. Usually when this happens I give up and reboot which sometimes helps.
I will note though that most of the footage I am editing is 1080p 60fps, so it is taxing on the system. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling PD 14 to no avail or discernable difference. My video card drivers are also fully up to date as well as Direct X which is version 11.
I would like to also note that I upgraded from Power Director 12, which I also experienced crashes with but not at the level I am having with 14. I may also add that I have changed nothing about my system from 12 to 14. Still exactly the same PC. Here are the specs and info outlined in the forum guide:
-Power Director version #14.0.2302.0 (should be the newest version)
-Diagnostic Files are attached to this post, including the 64-bit specs. But here are my general PC's specs anyway:
1) Windows 7 Professional 64-bit
2) 32 gigs of RAM
3) i7-3770 Quad core 3.4 Ghz
4) Nvidia Geforce GTX 680 2 gigs of RAM
5) Kingston 225 Gig SSD (which PD and Windows run on) and a 3 TB drive for storage of video
My processor and video card are about 2 years old but I can't see a quadcore i-7 with 32 gigs of RAM and a solid mid range video card having trouble running Power Director, or even 1080p 60fps video. When I am actually able to edit footage the program runs very smoothly, but the crashes are what is killing it for me.
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
