I'm subbed to your channel and I watch all of your video's. Very helpfull.

I walked in to one problem with PD17..

When you record video in the capturesection, the sound de-syncs. I never had this problem in PD16. I still have that version and it still works without a flaw. Do you know what the problem can be in PD17? Do you have an idea?

Sorry I don't. You need to post a new thread in the forum so the moderators and others can see it. That way if it is an existing problem more eyes will be on it and someone might have a solution. If no one has a solution the moderators can get the issue to CyberLink so the company is aware of it. Subscribe to PowerDirector University on YouTube.
