PowerDirector is not so professional, that it supports those formats.
You are right, PowerDirector cannot handle with ProRes or DNxHR, or even footage better than YUV 4:2:0
You have to convert your footage first.
The most recommended transcoder is handbrake, but I don't know, if it can handle with DNxHR footage.
My favorite is always ffmpeg, but it is commandline driven.

Hi, thanks for the quick reply.

Yes, the PD does not support this format is annoying, just so that no 10bit can be processed. Unfortunately, the program mentioned by them can convert the files.
Does not have to be free software, maybe who knows another program, or what else do people with what an Atomos recorder?

PD can use UT422 (YUV) video so there are some formats that work, but not sure any are hiDef. HP Envy Phoenix/4thGen i7-4770(4@3.4GHz~turbo>3.9)

If you want to do really professional filming, 10 or more bit, yuv4:4:4 and vlog, then I have to admit, PowerDirector is not the right editor for you. You have to convert your footage to a lossy format and loose much information prior to editing.
There are professional editors on the market, Adobe Premiere as the first to mention, or DaVinci Resolve, or GrassValley Edius, or (I think, really new in the streets) HitFilm.

Have a try and good luck.

Hi,
yes that was already aware that PD has its weaknesses, only I would now reluctantly change after years of use.

Maybe the 10bit should come sometime so you can live and other restrictions, so pro I'm now synonymous not.
But that the free version of Davinci can handle the Dnxhd codec annoys me then a bit.

In this respect, PD has a lot of work to do to update it and not just bring it back with the next version.

Thanks for answer.
