Hi,

I am going through the following training:

https://www.cyberlink.com/learning/video/25/applying-color-presets-on-video-clips

At 3:39, I noticed the training video shows the checkbox "Compare video qualities in split window". That is very helpful for me, however, it is missing from my PD 16.

I expect there must be something better in the new version 16.

Where can I find the feature in PD 16?

Thank you,

Hi Anna -

It's still there, in the same spot.

When you select a clip & choose Fix/Enhance, you'll see a checkbox for "Compare in split preview":

Thank you, everyone, for help.

The option is not available for WMV files. Only MP4 files. That was it !

Glad you partially found it Anna.

It's available for all video formats here, including WMV.
