Hi Igor Thanks for your reply. I have an Nvidia graphics card but it only has 1gb of memory. My pc is over 4 years old so is a bit out of date. I will try your suggestion with ‘alternative render’ but I’ll probably build a new computer according to your suggested specification, as my present one has a lower specification than this. Best wishes Phill

After upgrading to PTE 10 I’ve noticed that some areas are running slower than with previous versions. This is particularly noticeable in O&A when slide styles are used. The image takes a good few seconds longer to load when it contains a slide style. I suspect that I may need to upgrade my PC (I could do with upgrading anyway) which will be helpful with other graphics programs such as Photoshop CC and Lightroom Classic CC, but I am not sure what specification to go for (I will self build if necessary). Can anyone suggest a suitable specification in relation to mother board/processor/graphics card/memory etc? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. Phill

Thanks for your reply Igor. The images could possible be a bit large at 5184 x 3456 pixels but I have used similar sizes before with no problems. I have upgraded to 9.0.10 but the out of memory issue is still there. The show I am having problems with is built as follows: 5 x 10 portrait styles at the beginning of the show, followed by a series of individual images, then 2 x 10 portraits styles at the end. I have experimented with removing the 10 portraits slide styles from the beginning and reverting to basic single images, but leaving the two at the end. The HD video creation then works fine until it reaches the last image of first 10 portrait styles at the end. it then freezes . Could the issue be with the 10 portraits style?

Can anyone help me with this problem please? I’ve made a slide show in PTE 9 using a combination of the ‘3 portraits’ and the ’10 portraits’ wedding slide styles. There are 23 pieces of audio spread over 7 tracks and there are 113 images. The show is a fraction less than 8 minutes long. I can create a .exe file of the show with no problems but when I try to create an HD video version I get an ‘Out of memory’ message. This message appears multiple times in rapid succession. The process will keep running but takes up to about 55 minutes to complete. The resulting HD video file plays the first use of a slide style then the images progress no further. However, the audio continues to play as expected. I’ve searched online for a solution but haven’t been able to find one. Any ideas? Thank you for any help you can give with this.
