It is a de facto reality that we now have to do without the .exe files of yesteryear, making MP4 video the only viable path forward. Therefore, as expressed in another post, I remain perplexed by the impossibility of providing the program with more tracks video/images—as for example possible in Fotomatico. There are far too many audio tracks, yet a lack of flexibility elsewhere (again video( images). I believe I will skip version 12, also because—as previously posted—it is a serious anomaly not to have Video Optimizer included within the program. These are incomprehensible choices, but then again: de gustibus. Ghulya

There is a defining difference between photography and video, specifically regarding movement. The traditional dividing line is the "hard cut" between sequences, which is typical of video and cinema. Conversely, the cross-fade is the soul of what we used to call "slide shows" or "audio-visuals." These were born from analog transparencies projected via Kodak Carousels and synchronized with external control units for sound. During that transition from one slide to the next, a "third image" emerged—something incredible and ethereal. The enchantment of a true slide projection remains unrivaled by cinema and even less so by standard video. Using the mp4 format for "moving" slides today is a choice reserved for those with a refined palate. Ghulya photo etc since 1969

It lacks any narrative foundation based on photographic or cinematic grammar. This becomes evident right after the initial "sphere" gimmick. Take that zoom, for instance—the entry into the church followed by a violent zoom out. Had there been a cross-dissolve, the result would have been entirely different. A still image possesses a grammar and syntax distinct from a streaming video flow. It is essential not to confuse the two.

Digartal: intelligenti pauca verba, eh. Not other words, thanks. Igor, but it would be much better to offer a bundle for those who want it. Having everything integrated in one place is about efficiency for the user, not just software management. It’s about not wasting time between separate apps while we work. Finis terrae Ghulya

Igor, I think there is a misunderstanding regarding the core of my proposal. I am not asking for a tutorial on the current interface (I have been using PTE for years!); I am discussing workflow architecture and development efficiency. Let’s be pragmatic. If Video Optimizer already handles complex tasks like two-pass stabilization and high-bitrate conversion perfectly, why reinvent the wheel inside PTE 12? Instead of spending years struggling with redundant code integration, you could solve the problem today with two simple moves: Logical Integration: Just as PTE allows us to define an external editor for images, add a "Send to Video Optimizer" command in the context menu. This would create a seamless bridge without bloating the PTE 12 core engine. Commercial Bundle: Offer PTE 12 and Video Optimizer as a single Pro Bundle. As users, we would much rather pay a fair premium for a unified, functional ecosystem than wait years for a built-in solution that we already have in a separate window. In 2026, a professional NLE is defined by its efficiency, not just its feature list. Let’s stop talking about how to use the current tools and start talking about how to integrate them properly. This approach saves your development time and our production time. It’s a win-win. As for the screenshots showing me basic settings or resolutions: I am perfectly aware of how the software looks and where the buttons are. The issue isn't knowing "where" to click, but the lack of a smart link between two tools that should already be working as one. Let's focus on the workflow logic rather than the interface basics. Thanks Ghulya

Igor, I understand the technical constraints regarding real-time performance and the complexity of two-pass stabilization. However, if these tools must remain external, the solution should be logical and integrated. Since PTE already allows us to define an external editor for images, why not do the same for video? A simple "Edit in Video Optimiser" command in the context menu would bridge the gap. Furthermore, from a commercial standpoint, you should offer PTE 12 and Video Optimiser as a single bundle. Honestly, from our side as users, even a slight price increase for a "two-in-one" package would be much better than dealing with fragmented workflows and waiting years for technical fixes. It would solve the problem for you and the workflow issues for us in one move. If PTE 12 wants to be a professional NLE in 2026, we need a seamless experience, even if it’s powered by two separate engines under the hood.. Thanks Ghulya

As an old customer, I am still waiting for a clear answer. With the V12 release, why is the Video Optimiser still a separate, external utility? In 2026, this fragmented workflow is unacceptable. You claim PTE is now a full NLE, but forcing us to jump between two programs for stabilization and noise reduction is a step backward. The competition is integrated; we are still stuck with standalone tools. As a long-time supporter, I expect more than silence. Is a native integration planned for the V12 builds, or are you ignoring your core users? Thanks Ghulya

PTE 12: Why is Video Optimiser still a separate tool? With the release of PTE 12, it is time to address a critical issue regarding workflow efficiency. PTE AV Studio has evolved into a full-fledged NLE (Non-Linear Editor), yet we are still forced to use the Video Optimiser as a standalone external utility. In 2026, this fragmented approach is no longer acceptable for a professional. The technology for stabilisation, noise reduction, and frame interpolation is already yours. Keeping it locked in a separate tool creates an unnecessary mess for the user. We should not have to jump back and forth between two programs to prepare our clips before bringing them into the V12 timeline. The competition is moving much faster in terms of native integration. If PTE 12 wants to be taken seriously as a modern editor, these tools must be accessible with a single click directly from the File List or the O&A editor. Is there a technical reason why you are keeping this split environment, or can we expect a full, native integration in the upcoming V12 builds? Thanks Ghulya

More than just agreeing or disagreeing, there are certain views and expectations that I’m not convinced by. Of course, the final beta will clear things up, but in the meantime, I’d like to understand if the Video Optimizer will remain a standalone feature or if it will be effectively integrated into V12? Thanks Ghulya

Problem to see example. Ghulya

So, should I assume that V 12 is, in fact, a sort of general upgrade (bug fix?) while we wait for an XYZ version to be released in a few years with more video/image tracks and the ability to mix layers like in Photoshop? Thanks Ghulya

So, if I understand correctly, the new release 12 does not implement multiple levels of video/image, as well as multi-track sound: is that right? Thanks Ghulya

... Good luck Ghulya

Does anyone know when the next version 12 of PTE will be released? Thanks Ghulya

Unwatchable and very dangerous. in fact, it starts with children's games (like this video) and then gets used to the invasive use of Artificial Intelligence. Human Intelligence is enough. Thanks Ghulya

Question: when is scheduled next 12 Pte? Thanks Ghulya

Ok solved re-re-install V. 11 update 11. 0. 09. Deo gratia! Ghulya

Yes. Oh my God I have a problem: I've problem in my mind, an impossible error was occurs after updated 11. 0.9: ahi. Yes. I Can re-install it? Thanks Giulia

Problem again problem 10. 5. 10 Mac Where is “quick” command to copy example an XYZ attribute slide on other slide or sequence? Where is command save as…Png and other? Ghulya

Huston we have problem: after update to 11. 05. 9 of PTE 11 again re-update new 11. 05. 10. I re-open program ta da and claims me the key program! Well I find my license number and resolve it. Why the strange procedure? Ghulya Ps. Laptop Mac Book Air 16 GB Mac OS 13.5.2

Thanks for you patience!

Interesting tutorial, but I've a questions and put here: because isn't possible more “effects” for example dissolve page, add cul and other on same slide? Secondly, if is possible “freeze” and export via Png a list of slide why not for video, or a segment of it? Thanks Ghulya
