I was please with the ease of use of the software especially on simple operations and decided to go with this package.
Yesterday, I spent several hours combining small video clips into a 30 min movie with few cleanups.
As I attempted to Produce an AVI file --- I would get "PowerDirector has stopped working" and the software would exit.
As I removed all of the Magic-Clean from all clips and reduced the Movie to 15 minutes, the creation of AVI file finally completed!
Is this NORMAL/Typical ??? If this tool is only reliable for connecting clips and most other stuff is buggy than it is a waste of time.
I am running this on a laptop - Lenovo-T400 with dual-core and ATI chipset
I am using PDR-7.0.2519.
Should I be trying another patch ? Is there one ? Should be using certain settings ? Are there features I should stay away from ?
Another question/concern --- I was hoping to save my file in AVC-MP4 format and not AVI or MPEG-2 only formats --- Should I have purchased the Ultra version of this ?
