I'm on a trial version of Power Director, version 2509 is what I downloaded a few days ago. Windows 7.
My computer is an older i5 with 6gb of RAM, but I edited about 6 minutes of video with about six tracks in PowerDirector without any issues. I had real-time preview, the preview mode worked well enough on High quality and even HD. I could run it with my email and Opera open. I had a marathon session and made a nice video, and was planning today to purchase my license after a weekend out of town.
So I sat down this morning to get to work, and I can't even play the video in the preview on the lowest resolution. It gets jerky and the resource monitor of my computer says the CPU is way up, when before it was performing fairly respectably.
Between then and now, I've not done anything to the computer. No updates. PowerDirector is the only application running.
Could it be that my file is somehow corrupted?
Thanks,
Robert But then again...
