Beautiful spot! Many thanks Mark!

Thanks for the prompt reply. I don’t think it is vital to modify PTE to accommodate as it was only that as all the other files were useable in the folder threw me in finding the reason. One feature they would be useful is the ability to use the mouse scroll wheel in the file list. Thanks again Tony

There is no doubt the straight dissolve would work well on this very linear/geometric landscape, especially when an O & A zoom/move is used also. Thanks for commenting.

I find it best not to use any special characters at all, keep things with just AtoZ and numbers. I have found that filenames containing special characters or characters with accents will not always work when used in a Menu. Keep it simple & you shouldn't have any problems Jill

Hi, On macOS the "?" character is allowed in folder names, unlike Windows where it's prohibited by the OS. The issue during MP4 export the most likely occurs because the "?" symbol is interpreted as a special character by video encoders, which breaks the file path. I'll check the code if we can handle this case in a future update. Currently I recommend to avoiding "?" symbold in folder names. Also please note that even if we add this support for macOS, the project will not be able to be opened on a PC with Windows.

Hi Igor, I am currently working on my Mac in the latest beta of version 12 and have come across a problem that I have managed to resolve. I have all my images etc and project files saved in a folder that ends with a ? mark The folder is named How do you like your steak? Images, audio file and the project files can be opened from this folder and I can create a Show for Mac. However, if I try and publish as video file .mp4 I cannot do so. I have changed the name of the folder so that it no longer contains the ? mark and now all is well. The solution is not to have folders named with the ? mark but thought I would pass this on. Thank you for your continued work in progressing PTE AV Studio, it is appreciated.

Nice landscape you have there Mark Being an old (non creative🙄) guy I prefer dissolve transitions, but I recognize I am still in the dark ages

At dawn, the horizon at Sharpes Beach begins to breathe. A thin blade of gold lifts from the Pacific, softening the dark edges of sea and sky. The tide whispers along the sand, and the first surfers drift like silhouettes against a molten path of light. A lone fisherman wanders in quiet witness as morning gathers strength. Mobile phone in hand, I follow the coast's curve toward Flat Rock. The air smells of salt and moss. Waves comb the rocks in rhythmic bursts, perfect for camera and time-lapse footage. Gulls wheel overhead. By the time the sun clears the headland, the day feels newly written. All images and video captured on the mobile phone. I used the recently shared transition by Dirk1503 on some of the images.

Thank you. Great effect, just used it in a show that I was working on from last Friday. Appreciate you sharing Mark

Thank you, this is beautiful and useful.

What about publishing a short YouTube video showing your transitions?

Hi Dirk, thanks for sharing, it's a very nice transition 😀

Thanks--nice effect.

Here are a few simple transitions I created. Wind.pteeff

Another busy week, but I wanted to share a cool new music track...the latest in my "Light Puzzles" series: "LIGHT PUZZLES 13" (Looping) You can listen to it here: https://soundimage.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/Light-Puzzles-13.ogg And download it here: https://soundimage.org/puzzle-music-8/ It's 100% free to use in your projects with attribution. Attribution information is here: https://soundimage.org/attribution-info/ OTHER NEWS I just finished the music score for a cool farming sim game called "Agromatic." Working on music scores for 2 other games, "Futurika" and "The Mandarin Machine." Such cool titles dreamed up by these developers! (I'm always struggling with titles for my music tracks.) Anyhow, you can check out these games and others that I've scored here: https://soundimage.org/custom-work/ Feel free to contact me if you need some help! 🙂

We've successfully updated the server. Thank you for your patience!

I put together a transition. Rotating strips. Version 12 has this new transition. If you stick with version 11 for whatever reason, you'll have the new transition, just like in version 12. Download the transition to YouTube.
