Hi, Sorry, I missed this topic earlier. If you selected SEVERAL different slides and want to apply a slide style (which requires 1 image) WITHOUT changing the slide order, you need to check the "Keep slide order" option in the Slide Styles window before applying the style. Also I recommend you apply slide styles in the mode of Slide List (not in the Timeline mode). I recommend for a new slide style (or theme) start a new project where you only have one or a few slides for that style. Delete any unused slides to avoid unexpected behavior with slide durations. If the planned style has 1 images (1 slide), keep only 1 slide in this special project. P.S. Additionally, try Create/Apple Quick Style functions (in the main menu > Slide menu). It works within current session of PTE AV Studio and this function never changes slide duration or transition, it applies only slide animations with objects.

Thanks, I've understood.

Hi, Thanks for your suggestion. I like this idea. Give us time to think about this function. Are there any examples of apps that implement this function?

This problem shouldn't occur because the slides are preloaded (3 slides forward). Tell me, where are the files (images, video clips) added to your project located? Local SSD or HDD drive, external USB HDD drive, or network drive? What antivirus do you use? What is the average slide duration (in seconds)?

Tom, thanks for sharing! Great work.

Tom, thanks for your suggestion. In theory we can add 15fps option. In fact, video encoder in PTE is very smart. For this type of content a difference in file size between 15p and 24/30p will be negligible (around 20%). Just turn off the Hardware acceleration option for better compression. The encoder understand that it's the same picture with dissolving transition. You can compare existing 30p and 60p options to check a difference in file size.

Hi, Yes, you can download V10.5 for Mac: https://files.wnsoft.com/pteavstudio/previous-versions/PTE-AV-Studio-10.5.12.dmg and activate the Mac version with your current license key for V10 Pro. You can use one license on 2 computers - Windows and/or Mac. If you forgot your license key, you can recover it on this page: https://www.wnsoft.com/en/pte-av-studio/lost-license-key/

Hi, For Mac users running the new macOS 26 (Beta): Fixed problem with wrong colors in HEIC images. Improved compatibility. Download: https://files.wnsoft.com/test/PTE-AV-Studio.dmg PTE AV Player for Mac: https://files.wnsoft.com/test/PTE-AV-Player.dmg (About window shows: 11.0.18 Build 5)

HEIC images are supported only in the Mac version. Not on Windows. We plan to add full HEIC support in future. HEIC is a very complicated format. It's based on Apple file container + array of HEVC videos (tiles) + meta information (color profile).

PTE AV Studio and Optimiser can read (and play) videos in HEVC format. On PC or Mac. PTE AV Studio on Mac can read images in HEIC format.

Thanks for checking and confirmation!

Hi, Please try a new version on your Mac with macOS 26 Beta. Now HEIC images should be shown correctly: https://files.wnsoft.com/test/PTE-AV-Studio.dmg This version includes only one this improvement. The About window shows v11.0.18 Build 4. PTE AV Player (if you create shows for a Mac): https://files.wnsoft.com/test/PTE-AV-Player.dmg

Hi, it looks like you're using Beta version of macOS 26 Tahoe - the final version has not been released yet. I confirm this issue with HEIC images in the current Beta version. We're checking the code and will try to fix it before the final version is released. You can wait the updated version or convert HEIC images to JPEG format.

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.

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!
