Nice, It would be interesting combine both normal and infrared images with masks. Thanks Alex55

Thank you, Jill, for the quick response! I do this but this text is affected by the transition effect at the end of each slide. How can I remove the transition effect for the text between slides?

Easy, just copy & Paste the Text in O&A onto all the Slides you need. Jill

I had a hard time figuring this out, so I'll ask. Is it possible to have the same text appear on multiple slides (not all!) without affecting the transition effect? The main thing for me is to do it for a group of slides.

Hey everyone, I had to take some time off for family matters, but I'm back to creating new music to share with you. So this week we have... On my Horror 2 page: "NIGHT STALKER 3" https://soundimage.org/horror-2/ On my Puzzle Music 8 page: "ANCIENT MAGIC" https://soundimage.org/puzzle-music-8/ And on my Sci-Fi 14 page: "OFF-WORLD DESOLATION" https://soundimage.org/sci-fi-14/ As always, they're 100% free to use in your projects in Mp3 format, just like my thousands of other music tracks. Btw, it's great to see that people are utilizing my Ogg Music packs...I'm so glad they're helpful! Here are links to them: https://soundimage.org/ogg-game-music-mega-pack/ https://soundimage.org/ogg-music-packs-2/ Enjoy, stay safe and keep creating! 🙂

Everyone needs a secret garden in their life and you’re invited to visit Wendy Whiteley’s Secret Garden, a public garden and much loved oasis in the heart of Sydney. Located a short walk over the Sydney Harbour Bridge, or a closer stroll from Milsons Point and North Sydney train stations, the Secret Garden is a haven where you can explore meandering pathways discovering sculptures as you go; enjoy a picnic basket or read a book at one of the tables or benches beneath the garden’s canopy; or you can simply enjoy the nature and serenity of your beautiful surrounds. You may even stumble across a hidden fairy house. Created over the past 20 years by artist Wendy Whiteley, wife and muse of Australian artist Brett Whiteley, the Secret Garden is nestled behind Luna Park in one of Sydney's most spectacular, and possibly smallest suburbs, Lavender Bay.

Hi Jill, I will do that and see if it goes back to normal. thanks Enid

Hi Enid, I have just updated to 11.0.18 now & the magnifying glass is still there. Nothing has changed, so not sure why you are having problems. Try uninstalling & re-install again. Are you Windows or Mac? Jill

Hi Jill, I think the displacement map has stopped working...I updated this am from .17 to .18. It was working this am before I did the update, and when I go to the displacement map now I get a list of the things on my desktop. likely this is just a setting somewhere, but I am not sure where to look.

In O&A Select Add Masks, Tick the Displacment Map & select Lens from the drop down Jill

where is the magnifying glass?

Roger, I've sent you a personal message through the forum messenger, please read it. If possible, send me a screen recording. In V11 we use newer version of DirectX 3D rendering. I don't remember similar issue with video flickering. The most likely updating of Intel graphics drivers will cure this problem.

Thanks Igor for taking a personal interest in my problem. What I don’t understand is that, with this PTE session file containing videos, clips runs without problems when using V10.5. The problem only occurs with V11. The situation has changed and flickering only occurs on the mini player. The videos are typically 1440x1080 HD codec H.264 about 68M size. I have restarted my PC. Graphics Card - Intel(R) UHD Graphics 770. I have checked the graphic card driver is up to date. Flickering also occurs on the pelican section on your sample video using mini player. Now that it is just the mini player I can ignore it. Thanks again. Roger.

Hi Roger, If I understood rightly, you observe this problem only in a full screen Preview and in the Mini Player (in the main window). Right? Try to restart Windows to check if it helps to solve this issue. 1. Please can you describe in more details - what exactly you see? Is it skipping frames during video clip playback (choppy playback)? Or some flickering on the monitor? 2. Do you add video clips at HD 1080p quality, or 4K UltraHD? 3. Try to open the Sample Project, included with PTE AV Studio. Browse the Main menu > Help > Open Sample Project. 3rd slide contains a video clip with a slow motion (a pelican bird). Do you see the same issue on this slide in this project? 4. Tell me about a configuration of your PC (graphics card). If this problem persists, I recommend to manually update drivers for your graphics card (NVIDIA, AMD or Intel). P.S. Jill, thanks for your advices!

I don't know if it could be the same problem, but the same thing happened to me too and it seems to have been solved by touching the NVIDIA control panel settings with these adjustments, I don't know what graphics card you use, but in case it's the same problem, the flickering was only in preview when creating the .mp4 file it disappeared

Please explain why I have no problem using V10.5 but I do using V11. Incidentally I have re installed V11. Roger

What is your Graphics card? How much VRam Does it have dual Graphics ie also an intel chip. If so then make sure PTE is using the main Graphics Card What is your Monitor Resolution What Resolution & Frame Rate is the video I have never had flickering, only some occasional stuttering when using a very large 1.5 GB video that I was taking 5 secs clips from. But if everything is ok in the final MP4 then I wouldn't worry too much about it. Maybe if you are only using a small portion of the video then try Converting/Triming it first Jill

Jill, Running on new Dell desktop. Win 11 version. Graphics Card - Intel(R) UHD Graphics 770. Video files typically 60M. Using PTE 11.0.18. No other applications running in background. Roger.

The latest version is 11.0.18 Are you running on desktop or laptop. If laptop make sure you are plugged in, not battery. Are you Mac or Windows. How large is the video file. Jill

I have a PTE session file, created in V11, that contains video clips. If I use it on PTE version 10.5 it runs fine. If I use the same session file on my 11.0.18 build 3 version the videos flicker. I have compared all the setting on both versions and see no difference. If I publish it as a mp4 file in V11, the flickering disappears. Any suggestions how to resolve please.

Works just like a still image and is very easy to use to adjust the time of transition and video/image, add other images/video, image in image etc. Have a go and share it here. Cheers Mark

Thanks, glad you liked it.

Thank you - it is actually 2 lenses with a 180-degree view on each side of the camera. Due to the harsh lighting conditions of sun and shade, you can see the join in places. The in-camera software removes the 4-foot selfie stick. Images from each camera are 1 inch square and when joined are an equirectangular shape. It has proprietary software for editing the video, but is very basic when it comes to other editing like transitions, audio, text, merging with still images etc. It is a bit fiddly using two software applications but reasonably happy with the result for the first AV. Thanks for commenting. Mark

Thanks for posting this creative video. I've never tried using PTE for video transitions. Must give it a try since it worked so well for you.

Cool, very nice....
