In case you’re not aware of it...

If you think of the PIP tracks as a stack of cards, #6 will always be on top, and #1 will always be at the bottom of the stack. And the numbers in between are stacked in the same successive order.

Perhaps one of your PIP’s is stacked under, or obscured by, what’s on another higher numbered PIP track?

Yes...this is like most programs where everything is in layers.

I only have two videos. One main and another that is in PiP 1. (They are both the same movie but from different camera angles. I recorded an event with two cameras simultaneously.)

Like you said, video and audtio may be layered, but with only two layers (main and PiP 1) and no other PiP strings activated, I can't figure out how to make this one clip visible.

Even when I highlight the clip and click on the MODIFY button, I still do not see the clip...it shows the main clip.

There has to be a way to move the PiP to the front.

(What makes this bad is that this 3 second PiP clip is what is holding me up from rendering the entire show. The rest of my project is done. Ain't that the luck!)

If you slide this PIP past the end of what's in your master track, is it still not visible? If you, as a test, place it in the master track after your main clip, is it visible?

I really don't know why just one added PIP wouldn't show up. I've never encountered that before.

You didn't accidentally click on the "Hide Track" tab/button (next to the "Lock Track tab), did you? That would cause the track to not be visible. Click here PDtoots for a collection of PowerDirector Tutorials and Tips

I moved the PiP to the end and it is still NOT visible. (But Audio is active)

The hide/visible option is set to visible.
Thoughts?

Yes, just one. You need someone a whole lot smarter than me to respond right now, hahaha.

Nope, I don't have any thoughts that spring to mind on why the clip doesn't show in your PIP. As I said, I've never had that happen to me. Especially if you've verified that it isn't a corrupt file by seeing that it does indeed display when placed in the Master track.
Perhaps one of the the big boyz like Dafydd, RobertJ, vin800rider, or JL, etc., will chime in with some thoughts. Click here PDtoots for a collection of PowerDirector Tutorials and Tips

Cranston...
Thanks for your time. I ended up just deleting the clip that's messed up, opened PiP2, imported the video track again into PiP2, editting it and then moving the newly editted clip into the PiP1.

Hopefully one of the Big Gunz will have a better way to fix this kind of problem.
