Hi

Im evaluatiing the Powerdirector 16 ulitimate software but Ihave run into a problem - I cannot import 2560 x 1440 videos - I receive a message "Your version of PowerDirecor doesnt support this feature"

Is this just a limitation of the Trial version? Will it work if I purchase the software?

I also find that using the Screen Capture 16, whilst I can capture a full 2560 z 1440 window, in options of the screen capture the max recording resolution is 1980 x ..... At some point it is down sizing teh video but the resultant quality is quite poor (artifacts and blurring) - Is this normal.

Sorry for what might seem obvious questions - I am completely new to this type of software so I am on a very stee learning curve

Many thanks

Hi melph -

On your screen recorder question, that's not a trial limitation. It's just how CL Screen Recorder is. If you look at the file settings, you'll see that 1920x1080 is the maximum output (even though it might say 2560x1440 in the GUI).

If you need to record at higher resolutions, there are quite a few options... even some free ones. For 4K/UHD captures, I use Camtasia 9. OBS does an excellent job too.

Cheers - Tony
