So as a YouTube content creator a big thing that I like to use is sound effects, and many sound effects are one second or less, and these clips cannot be used on PowerDirector. To me this needs to change as it infuriates the hell out of me, is there any way to use clips less than one second? Because I had so many I wanted to use for my videos and... well, I can't.

Since you say sound effects, use a wav file and it can be shorter than 1 sec.

I'm not sure where you're getting your clips, but if you're recording them just make sure they last longer than 1 sec and you can trim them to any length on the timeline.
