Quote For anyone interested in getting additional effects or any other BorisFX video products beyond those included with the PD365 subscription, they're having a 25% off sale through Sept 11.

Here's their store's webpage, and to get the discount you can enter save25 at checkout.

Thanks for letting me know! I would not have known!

As long as we're on the subject I wanted to share the link to the NewBlue FX Cyberlink page. No sale going on but thought I'd share. Subscribe to PowerDirector University on YouTube.

This is the response I got from BorisFX:

Unfortunately we do not have anything available that is compatible with PowerDirector - we used to have a bundle for various versions, but this is no longer bundled, and we never actually sold anything for use with it.

Now, having said that, there is a free Compositing Host called Resolve (that is, there is a free version) that is compatible with the BCC/Continuum OFX package - this would allow you to at least apply BCC to individual clips and relay these back to PowerDirector to insert into your timeline.


I have never tried Composting Host. Anyone?

See the link supplied by optodata. Go to Products/Continuum/Particle Illusion. It is a free standalone program that you use to create particles that can be exported as .mov files that you can import to PowerDirector to use.

Follow up. Hoping Cyberlink grows in popularity.

The Cyberlink included plugins I believe we discontinued the
bundle a while back as well. Unfortunately I don't have any contacts at
Cyberlink to check with since we dropped Support some time ago.
Someone at Cyberlink Customer Service/Sales might be able to get you a
quick Yes/No as to this inquiry, at least.

Thank you again.
