![]() But because of the unresponsive forum help and customer service which is fast, but not very helpful with solutions, I would not recommend this program to anyone who isn't already extremely computer literate. PD7 is extremely powerful but also, it would seem, very sensitive to what is on your computer as well as the type of hardware you have on your computer. ![]() Power Director 7 is a very powerful program, but the lack of bug fixes, modules that don't work, compatibility problems, and a customer support department that only sends out boiler plate emails to their customers instead of addressing the problems they are having is a major drawback for those who are contemplating the purchase of this program. Hopefully, these issues will be fixed in the very near future, but if you are looking for a solid video editing program, you'll be taking your chances with Power Director 7 because you'll never know if you are one of the lucky where PD7 might be compatible with your PC. The primary reason why this otherwise excellent video editing software doesn't score a higher rating is due to some of the serious bugs found in this program. PS ! I have found different forums with keyword Powerdirector 7 Vista problem and they all say that crashing and hanging is the main problem. What data I have to post in here so someone could help ? What details about my PC and software(s). When I had them both installed and selected Edirol FA-66 as primari in windows - PD7 worked with Edirol about minute and then just swiched to Audigy ! What I really miss in PD7 is option to choose what soundcard I use and do I want to run it as ASIO, DX or something else and also set the latency and buffer. Unfortunately I don´t use this toy and my main soundcard is Edirol FA-66 firewire soundcard (ASIO). Point is - i have bought PD7, so I don´t want spend money to buy another.Ībout sound problem - I installed Crative Audigy 2 and sound was well. They all worked smooth and loaded in 20-30 seconds ! Just today I downloaded some more trial or demo versions of different video editors (Edius, Pinnacle studio, Ulead Video studio, Avid Liquid, Corel Video studio, Magix Movie Edit, Roxio Creator) Point is - it´s the only program I ever used, that does not "like" my PC or has some conflict. There must be something in PD7, that does not like my PC. PD7 is very good program (in my oppinion) for the money, so I´d really like to fix this problem. That´s what I want to know also and that is why I wrote here. Quote: I run it on 4 computers and the slowest loads the program in less than 30 seconds. Why is it that you are the only person that cannot download the version 8 trial? That has nothing to do with Cyberlink and that alone gives me suspicions of a problem with something and when ever I have problems in one area, it makes me suspicious of the whole system I'm using. I would suspect the machine and/or software conflicts first. Software mixes and hardware can create untold problems from time to time and unless many others are experiencing the same thing, it is quite difficult to pin down. If there were lots of others with the same problem as you are experiencing, I think you could assume the program has major flaws, however right now, you are experiencing something that seems to be unique to your machine. Tommy, I also had no problem downloading from the provided link. Quote: Sorry, but PD8 is no better, just more and different bells and whistles. I know the problem is not im my hardware or configuration, because all other audio and video programs that I have or have tested run perfectly in my PC. Guys - these are major problems and you have to fix them not make new bells and whistles. When I exit PD7, it remains running in memory, so I have to close it manually in task manager. Its the only program that does that and that does not let me choose options for audio hardware. I use professional external Firewire soundcard (Edirol) with full ASIO and PD7 crashes the sound every time I insert and replace or remove new clip in the timeline, so I have to restart the program every time I add new clip to timeline. ![]() PD7 loads over 5 minutes in my PC, so did the PD8 ! Sorry, but PD8 is no better, just more and different bells and whistles.Ĭyberlink should "invest" more to make the version stabile and with better berforamnce that whistles.
