Thanks for the confirmation

Hi Igor just tested and now the volume of the sounds effects is correct. Good

Hi, Please wait - did I understand rightly that if you remove all custom transitions, any builit-in transitions are applied to a slide quickly and without delay? So, you select a built-in transition (i.e. Default transition or Dissolve), click the OK button, and the Slide Options window quickly closes? Does the issue occur only if there are some imported (or created) custom transitions in the library, even if they are not currently in use? In your first video in the 1st message above, I saw a delay in closing the Slide Options window, but I didn't see any custom transitions in the list of available transitions. If I understand all rightly, could you please send me all the custom transitions you use in PTE AV Studio? It would be better if you send a ZIP copy of the entire "Styles and Transitions" folder. Write me a personal message through the forum with the download link. Thanks in advance,

I guess that you speak about search filter for slide styles, not transitions? It's an important point, thank you. My native language doesn't have diacritical symbols, so I didn't know about this point. Can you give me 4-5 examples so we can check how this should work? How this implemented in other programs? Are diacritical symbols also ignored in search?

I have tried Beta 5. I did successfully publish the video without it freezing. Increasing the speed of a video in the Trim and Adjust Speed Window STILL DOES NOT WORK. THE SPEED DOES NOT INCREASE. It gives a changed duration for the length of the video, but if you change the slide duration to that number, the video ends prematurely in playback. Take the project I sent you and run it through v 11 to see how much more quickly the downhill speed through the canyon increases. This just does not happen in v 12 Beta 5. I have tried other number percentages and other videos, particularly ones that were not trimmed or otherwise altered, but it does not seem possible to increase the speed of a video above 100%. Decreasing the size of a video, however, does seem to work just fine.

Hello, this search option is interesting and useful. I agree with alexroma's request to add a filter to show transitions and styles by number of slides. I would also ask, if possible, that it not differentiate between accented and unaccented letters, to avoid having to do two searches. Thank you.

Hello, I have removed all transitions, and using only those built into the program, the transition window does not experience any delay. I created a project from the main menu > File > Templates > Create Template, and the window closes properly, and the main program window works immediately. But I've been doing more tests with the transitions I had before removing them, and when I press only the “Close” button in the “Transitions” window, it behaves differently. Let me see if I can explain. With all the custom and built-in transitions, I'm going to use only the ones built into PTE. 1. I add a transition to the slide (I click “OK” and the window closes slowly). 2. I display the Transitions window, the cursor is on the transition I have added (I close the “Cancel” window without changing the cursor, the window closes quickly). 3. I display the Transitions window, I move the cursor to another transition (I close the “Cancel” window, the window closes slowly). Every time I apply a transition, it closes slowly. Every time I close the Transitions window without changing the cursor to another transition, it closes quickly; if I change the cursor, even if I don't apply the transition, it closes slowly. And with version 12, the same thing happens: I have set all the transitions and the Transitions window becomes slow when closing.

Igor, Thank you for the clear explanation of the bits to use.

Now V12 Beta 5 can create project ZIP archives larger than 2 GB.

Hi, Please try the new Beta 5. The program will no longer freeze during video encoding for projects containing trimmed video objects. If you change a speed of a video object, the result will be visible in MP4 video export, mini-player, full-screen preview, and the Objects and animation window. It is not yet available in the Trim and Adjust Speed window preview - we will add this in a future Beta.

Try new Beta 5. We correctly normalized all sound files in the library (-3 dB).

Beta 5 is available See the download links above. Added support for creating ZIP archives of projects larger than 2 GB. Sound library: improved audio volume consistency. Fixed an issue where video export would freeze when a project contains a trimmed video object. Updated Dutch, French translations.

Hi, Thanks for your reply. The Controlled Folder Access option works regardless of the chosen antivirus. This option prevents files from being written to system folders and some user folders, including Documents and Desktop. Let me clarify just in case - does the long delay on closing Slide Options (transitions tab) occur even when there are no imported custom transitions? Only built-in transitions. If yes, can you try to manually delete Styles and Transitions folder from Documents > PicturesToExe? Close PTE AV Studio before deleting the folder. Try also create a new project template (main menu > File > Templates > Create template... Please note how quickly the template creation window closes and whether the main program window interface will work immediately after closing. Could you try the new PTE AV Studio 12 Beta and compare the speed of closing the Slide Options window?

While it is not the page curl, it is very effective. Well done.

Hello, That delay was also present in the previous version. The hard drive is an NVMe M.2 SSD. Regarding Controlled Folder Access, I can't tell you how it is, since I have Defender disabled and I use ESET instead. It's funny, I tried moving the transitions to another hard drive, and when I made that change, the Transitions folder remained in the C:\Users\user\Documents\PicturesToExe\Styles and Transitions folder. Now I've reconfigured the transitions in the Documents folder, and the Transitions folder has remained on the other hard drive. The files are transferred, but only that folder remains, as if it were blocked. It's true that Windows 11 sets all folders to read-only, but it moves the rest of the folders, except for the transitions folder. With Defender disabled, I don't know if changing “Controlled folder access” from PowerShell would work.

Sorry, it is not my album. I only provided a link to the original author. Kieron

Hi, Honestly, I'm puzzled by this problem. Please check if you have Controlled Folder Access enabled in Windows 11 (10). To check this, open Windows Security (search for it in Start menu), go to Virus & Threat protection, then click on Manage ransomware protection. Look for Controlled Folder Access setting and let me know if it's turned On or Off. Don't change it now. Do you have a local hard drive or SSD? Did you have this delay BEFORE v11.0.20?

Hello, for a future advent calendar for my club, I created this example of a spiral-bound calendar. I think this might answer a question that was asked. What do you think? Calendrier à Spirale.mp4

Thanks

Nelson por gentileza, gostaria que vc pudesse me ajudar a editar o album de fotos que comprei diretamente do seu site ( projeto )estou com dificuldade em editar. Obrigada fico no aguardo. (Translated by administrator: "Nelson, I would appreciate it if you could help me edit the photo album I purchased directly from your website (project). I'm having difficulty editing it. Thank you, I look forward to your reply."

With the antivirus disabled, the same thing happens. From the “Slide Options” button, when you click “OK,” there is a delay when closing the window, and the same thing happens when you click “Cancel.” Once the window is closed, you can use other slides. However, from the “Options” button, the opposite occurs. When you click the ‘OK’ and “Cancel” buttons, the window closes quickly, but once the window is closed, you cannot use other slides or do anything else, as if the program were frozen. To measure the time it takes, I would say that: From the “Slide Options” button, it takes 8 seconds for the window to close. From the “Options” button, it closes quickly, but it is blocked for 8 seconds. I know it's strange, because I could think it might be a graphics card problem, but if that were the problem, the same thing would happen with the Slide Styles window, and that window closes quickly.

Hello, Beta version V12 is already available. The final version should be ready in March.

Hello, when will version 12 be released?

I'd suggest waite a little while we checking another issue of the slow closing the Slide Options window. These issues may be related.

Could you please check 2 more things: 1. Uninstall and reinstall PTE AV Studio. If it didn't help: 2. Temporarily disable ESET antivirus and check how quickly the Slide Options window (with transitions) closes on clickin the OK button. Forgot to ask - if you click the Cancel button, how fast Slide Options window closes?
