Hello Barry,

Can you be more specific in terms of the issues you are experiencing?

From my understanding, each version of PowerDirector comes with a different New Blue Effects pack that should be installed with it. It is part of the bundle deal that old packs cannot be transferred.

Are you referring to extra packs you purchased or something? Let us know and we will pass it on.

Cheers,

I tried moving my xml files from a previous install but it didnt work as it has in the past. My paid FX are fine, I might have to uninstall all my PDs and New Blue FX and start from zero. Sigh.

Looking around I saw some very good coupons, taking 20% and more off the NB packs found on the Cyberlink site. HP Envy Phoenix/4thGen i7-4770(4@3.4GHz~turbo>3.9)
Nvidia GTX 960(4GB)/16GB DDR3/
Canon Vixia HV30/HF-M40/HF-M41/HF-G20/Olympus E-PL5.
Tape capture using 6 VCR, TBC-1000, Elite BVP4+, Sony D8 camcorder with TBC.

Hi Barry & PDR Moderator -

What I find confusing about it is that there doesn't seem to be much rhyme or reason. There probably is a valid reason - just that I can't see it.

Here, as shown below, most of the NB FX installed with previous versions of PDR still function. Even the Boris FX (installed with PDR16) work in previous versions.

NB FX V has a water mark for me... what can I do to correct the problem, or is there a way to correct the issue?

NB FX V is working fine on PD 13 but not on 16? any suggestions?



Thanks

Also interested in the answer to this

Never had a problem previously; always been able to use NB FX from previous versions in the current version (or possibly never noticed!) but now have lost one of the packs which I did use bits from (both V & VI now watermarked)

Would have thought that if they came as part of a purchased version they should be yours to keep installed for new versions of PD as they come along? Director Suite 365

Has this been solved yet? I used NBFX support ..they sent me a link to reinstall but it did not fix the problem. Anyone had any luck finding a way to fix the watermark issue?

The best way, it seems, to keep all those wonderful packs, is to actually buy them.

There are two places to purchase New Blue packages:

• Cyberlink's New Blue offerings


• New Blue Legacy vault

Look for coupons and sales. HP Envy Phoenix/4thGen i7-4770(4@3.4GHz~turbo>3.9)

Hello Barry,

You are right! I would recommend contacting New Blue, their support is pro-active. They help quite well and respond quickly to questions.

Also, it's to advise to study well what is in the packs because many effects are useless and outdated to actual "standards" and out of 10 effects sometimes 3 or 4 one will nearly never use. Unless one is an effects freak and use whatever....

Success!

Any progress with this? I assume that if I buy upgrade it does not break anthing I have paid before.

NB support did not help this time. Later from PD13 to PD14 they gave new V, but not anymore.
