Hi, Thanks, it's a duplicate option that no longer used. We'll remove the second 'Slide number' option from the default Bottom-left toolbar in future V12 release.

Hi, I have an idea on how to improve it. I'll write about it later.

Hello, As far as I understand, the problem is occurring with PTE AV Studio 11 on Windows. Please answer: 1. What exact version is installed? 11.0.21 or older. Check in the About window (Main menu > Help menu). 2. Did you recently start using PTE AV Studio and the problem occurred immediately? Or have you been using the program for a long time and it worked correctly before? 3. What files did you add to the Slide List in your project: JPEG, PNG, TIFF, or video files? 4. Check how the slides are displayed in the Sample Project (open it via the main menu > Help > Open Sample Project). 5. Describe your computer configuration: - Windows version. - Graphics card (NVIDIA, AMD, or Intel), preferably the exact name. This is important. 6. Try the newest V12 Beta on Windows to compare with V11: https://www.pteavstudio.com/forums/topic/52130-pte-av-studio-12-beta-10/

Hi, I recommend you start a new topic (thread) on the forum. If you use V11 start here: https://www.pteavstudio.com/forums/forum/67-troubleshooting/ For V12 Beta write here (new topic): https://www.pteavstudio.com/forums/forum/91-pte-av-studio-12-beta/ Also let us know the exact version number from the About window. And try with the simple new project. Add 3-5 images, check out how it works. You can also check the Sample Project (from the main menu > Help > Open Sample project command).

Hi Jill, Thank you for checking the new Beta 10! I've replied you by email. We'll try to improve this editor to make it easier for you to determine the final video playback time. Currently, editing focuses on working with the original video's timing.

Try new Beta 10. We fixed all known issues with speed keyframes and included other improvements: https://www.pteavstudio.com/forums/topic/52130-pte-av-studio-12-beta-10/#findComment-195861

Beta 10 is available See the download links above. Improved the Trim and Adjust Speed window (for a video object): Improved interface: window size is now remembered between sessions; Pause key can now be used to play/resume video playback; Removed "Speed keypoints" checkbox. Just add new keypoints in the timeline. Right click to remove a keypoint; Fixed known issues. Fixed an issue with second playback of the preview when the project contained a custom transition with a video mask. Fixed text appearing duplicated in Quick Search input field (in Slide styles and transitions).

We'll publish Beta 10 with significant improvements for this editor tomorrow.

Do you use Beta 9 now? If yes, please send me this project (a full backup copy). Main menu > File > Create backup in a ZIP.

Jill, I agree, something wrong with changing/adding first keyframe and scale of the timeline. Please wait, we'll improve the code.

Please try a simple idea - create a smooth video slowdown, a pause (1 s), and then a smooth resume of playback. I showed how to do this in the screenshot below. First, make sure you are using the new version - Beta 9. 1. Tick "Speed keypoints" option. 2. Add 4 keypoints, as shown on the screenshot. 3 Click the OK button to save the result. Check the preview in the Objects and animation editor and the Mini player in the main window.

Dave, Ealier, slide duration never changed automatically when the duration of a video object changed. Because a slide may contain other objects with their own durations. The only case when a slide duration automatically updates is when replacing a video object file name throught the Open file window, if its duration matched the slide duration. You need to tick an option "Speed keyframes" before adding any speed keypoints in the timeline.

Hi, I apologize it took so long! In the new version 12.0 Beta 9, we've added full support for HEIC images to PTE AV Studio. Please try it out and let me know how it works. https://www.pteavstudio.com/forums/forum/91-pte-av-studio-12-beta/

We published V12 Beta 9 with HEIC image support for Windows today. Now HEIC supported on a PC and Mac.

I think that we solved this in the new Beta 9 today.

Please try new Beta 9 released today.

Hi, try new Beta 9.

Beta 9 is available See the download links above. Added HEIC image support for Windows - the format used by iPhone for storing photos by default. Now available on both Windows and macOS. Added AVIF image support for Windows and macOS. AV1 video export is now 18% faster with slightly better quality and smaller file size. AV1 video playback is now hardware accelerated on Mac with Apple M3/M4/M5 chips, significantly reducing CPU load. Improved the Trim and Adjust speed window (for a video object). Fixed an issue with clearing unused resources of a project (slide style or custom transition). Fixed an issue where the program froze when a project contained a missing video file.

Mark, did you mean standard JPEG-XL images as .jxl files, or JPEG-XL from iPhone? JPEG-XL from iPhone is a DNG file containing both RAW data and an embedded JPEG-XL image.

Hi, I'm testing HEIC images support for a PC (Windows) in PTE AV Studio right now. If all is OK, we'll add it for V12 soon. It was not easy to support this tricky format! Interesting fact, a typical HEIC image file from your iPhone contains a grid of 48 small video fragments (4 x 8 tiles - 512 x 512 pixels short video clips which contain 1 frame, still picture) + meta data (rotation, color profile, thumbnail picture). I discoverd that even latest IrfanView cannot display correctly colors in HEIC images, colors are distorted slightly.

Hi, Please wait for Beta 9. We'll publish it within 2 days. We've added many improvements to this editor. Also we updated video decoders/encoders in Beta 9.

I thought you needed a simple way to merge several video files. Then PTE AV Studio would probably be suitable for adding transitions between videos.

Just an idea. Try PTE Video Optimiser. It can combine several video files into one.

Hi, If I understand correctly, it is not a V12 bug, and the same applies to all versions of PTE AV Studio. Thumbnails in the Slide List (Timeline) display the slide content at the end of the slide transition. We could potentially redesign this, but there are several options for how it could be implemented. Another problem is that adapting a setting for one project may not be optimal for another. I will glad to hear suggestions of members.

Hi, Can you share a copy of your project with us? We'll check the cause of this issue to help you. Use the "Create a backup in a ZIP" command from the main menu > File menu to create a full copy of the project with all linked files. P.S. Jill, thanks for your replies!
