Hello everyone Best wishes for a safe and happy Christmas and a wonderful New Year. I have started creating an AV of my travels this year. I was aiming for one photo per week but did not quite achieve my goal. Most weeks I take hundreds if not thousands of photos depending on location and subject. I spent 6 weeks in Europe in April - June, so there are a few more from this trip to the other side of the world. The images are captured on a mirrorless camera, drone, mobile camera/phone and 360 camera. This may not be the final AV but it will be very close. Cheers Mark

Happy New Year to all. Peace and health!

Happy New Year! I wish everyone health, happiness, and peace!

Hello everyone Thanks for commenting and feedback on the previous version of this. I made some changes to the previous version, so if you have 5 minutes to spare, have a look at this version.

For new customers. If you purchase version 11.0 today or later, you'll get a free upgrade to a final version 12.0 when it's ready (in March, 2026). We continue to work on version 12.0 and plan to add new features and new slide styles before the final version. _________________________________________________ What's New in PTE AV Studio 12 Pro: Sound Object Create impressive slideshows and AV shows with impactful sound effects. The new Sound object lets you play short audio files to enhance your slideshows and AV shows. Add whoosh sounds for fast transitions, subtle clicks when images appear, or any other short audio effects that bring your slideshow to life. Adjust volume for individual video clips and sound objects with precision. Voice Recording on Mac Mac users can now record voice-overs directly in PTE AV Studio without external tools. Slow-Motion and Video Speed Control Take complete control over video playback. Adjust video speed using key points - speed up, slow down, or freeze the action exactly where you need it. Insert pauses inside your video clips to emphasize key moments. The new frame interpolation creates smooth slow-motion effects by blending frames together, eliminating jerky playback when slowing down your footage. Modern Video Formats and AV1 Encoder Create content for social media and the web. PTE AV Studio 12 adds full support for vertical video (9:16 for YouTube Shorts, TikTok, and Instagram Reels) and square format (1:1 for Instagram posts).

The revolutionary AV1 encoder produces videos up to 50% smaller than H.264 while maintaining the same visual quality - perfect for web publishing. The improved Video Export interface with "Show/Hide Advanced Options" keeps things simple yet powerful. The "Fast decode (web)" option creates optimized videos for quick loading and playback on your website. You can even pause video encoding and resume later. New Creative Effects Bring your slideshows to life with stunning visual effects. The Dynamic Gradient map creates color transformations and artistic looks. Chromatic Displacement map adds glitch effects and distortions for modern, eye-catching visuals. The Instant speed modifier disables interpolation between keyframes for snappy, precise animations. Blur and Unsharp mask can now be adjusted separately for parent and child objects. Quick Search. New Slide Styles and Transitions Find the perfect slide style or transition instantly.

Hi, Please share your impressions of version 12.0 Beta. If you find any problem, please start a new topic for each one. Happy Christmas! Igor,

New transitions added in PTE AV Studio 12: Spots, Rotating Linear Wipe, Push Smooth Click to play video sample: New Transitions in V12.mp4

Absolutely love the sample project included with the new beta! Will be wonderful to explore many of the new features by going through those images and transitions. Much easier than aimlessly clicking buttons or printing out Igor's description sheet and looking for the updates. Great job and beautiful images, Barry Beckham! And I love the winking koala at the end! One of the changes that stands out to me so far is the ability to use a parent object to change the colors and opacity of it's associated children. Having to modify those settings for each one of those child images / objects in the past was a bit annoying.

Hi, I wrote a small free extension for Chrome browser. If your eyes get tired reading text on glossy monitors, or you find it hard to focus on smooth high-resolution screens (especially 4K displays) - this might help. The extension adds a barely visible pixel grain texture that gives your eyes something to focus on. Works great on Retina and high-DPI displays. It's completely free. I spent just one day making it during the weekend. Not related to PTE AV Studio, just sharing in case someone finds it useful. https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/screengrain/amgkkiknaaofelhmokbhiidcganljcjh

Happy new year for you Igor, your family and your team, and to all of us ! A good health of course, this is the most important ! And a well-deserved succes for PTE 12.

Hello Igor, I also wish you and your team a very happy new year, first and foremost good health, and of course, continued success in providing us with high-quality software that we use to create beautiful things. PTE allows us to unleash our creativity and have a great time. Happiness and peace to all.

Hi, In PTE AV Studio 12 we added a new speed modifier - "Instant". It allows you to achieve an instant change of any animation parameter between 2 keyframes (without smooth interpolation).You can apply it to Pan, Zoom, Rotate, Opacity and other animation parameters. If you have 2 keyframes, add the "Instant" modifier to the 1st keyframe. Download a demo project: Instant Animation.zip Video example: Instant Animation.mp4 Screenshot:

I really want layer overlay effects in this program, at least Screen and the usual Bounce fade effect in modifiers. In motion modifiers, it's a good idea to add "Random Movement", as in ProShow, because when the same leaves are wobbling, there is no measured movement, there is randomness.

Merry Christmas to you and your team Igor! Thanks for the early Christmas present! I look forward to working with this new exciting version!

Captured throughout 2025, these images depict birds in their natural environments, shaped by the seasons, light, and their surroundings. Some frames celebrate the poetry of flight, where wings intersect with shifting light, while others rest in quiet observation. Together, they explore the artistic relationship between movement and illumination in the living landscape.

Hi, Smooth Move modifier was introduced in V11, but probably not everyone may know how useful it can be. This demo shows how the Smooth Move modifier improves animated panoramas when you change a direction of motion at a middle keyframe. Without the Smooth Move modifier, you'll see a sharp, unnatural break in the movement direction. With the Smooth Move modifier, the image smoothly changes trajectory with natural momentum, gently rounding the sharp corner. If you have 3 keyframes and a direction of motion changes at the 2nd keyframe (in the middle), you need to add the Smooth Move modifier to that 2nd keyframe. The "Smoothing (%)" parameter controls how much the motion is smoothed. I recommend to keep the default value 100%. Note that Smooth Move also creates smooth starts and stops, giving the motion a natural, momentum-based feel. If you're using simple motion between just 2 keyframes, use the Smooth speed modifier on the 1st keyframe instead. In this case, don't use Smooth Move. Download the demo project: Smooth Move modifier.zip Video example: Smooth Move modifier.webm Screenshot:

The MP4 just contains the trimmed part. If you make an exe then it will contain the whole video but only show the trimmed part. Jill

Google doesn't allow the use of any screen filters on some system pages, for example: a blank page, web store for Chrome extensions, preferences of Chrome, etc.

Thanks, Igor! I found this effect surprisingly interesting. It's truly pleasing to the eye, even though my monitor isn't glossy. It's like reading a newspaper.

Thank you, Igor. I wish you and your team a Happy New Year. I’m looking forward to seeing what v12 has to offer.

Happy New Year! Merry Christmas! May this year bring joy, happiness, and fulfillment of your wishes! The slide has been compiled. In the latest version PTE.

Well, finally, we've finally got it! Thanks to Igor and the team for the pre-holiday surprise! I loved all the new features, each one is useful and improves the functionality of our favorite program! I especially appreciated the sound object, as it's been a long-awaited need. I think we'll get some interesting transitions with sound! I also really liked the ability to use video with keyframes, it's fantastic! I also really liked the RGB displacement effect (hello, glitches)! And you can definitely create something beautiful with the gradient map! Overall, thank you for your work! We'll try out all the new features and write more about them. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

The 360-degree imagery requires a special application to make the videos which can then be further edited in PTE AV Studio. The original 360degree video cannot be edited directly in PTE. Glad you enjoyed them Mark

Duh..... I didn't think to click on that image. Looks like a great Flickr gallery, I'll take a look later as I'm tied up now. Thanks Mark (Apologies for calling you Dave earlier)

No link (that I could see) below ALso noticed you referring to your flickr account. Not knowing your last name makes it hard to look up😊🙄

Hi, In PTE AV Studio 12, we've included a new function - Quick Search in the Slide Styles window and Transitions window. This allows you to quickly find or filter the desired transition or style by name, category, or author name. PTE AV Studio remembers your choice during the current session, independently for styles and transitions. You can hide the Quick Search bar in Preferences > Templates tab by unticking the "Search in styles and transitions" option.

Thanks Igor, I have downloaded and installed it.

Tested and the problem is solved, thank you.

Hello all I’ve just tested this new feature in version 12, and it effectively replaces what I had probably somewhat clumsily called the “threshold effect.” This effect is based on the opacity of an image mask representing a grayscale pattern, where the opacity depends on the adjustment of black point and white point levels. The main drawback was that it required creating a key point for each gray value — up to 255 in order to cover the full range of shades. Several examples have been provided by different members on this forum (I’m probably not being exhaustive), for example: With the Gradient Map effect in v12, it is no longer necessary to create a large number of key points, since everything can now be controlled through the opacity parameter. This offers much greater flexibility in the adjustments, notably by allowing the use of animation speed settings, inverting the pattern (negative) to reverse the animation, and more. Below is an example of a transition made with the Gradient Map effect in version 12. Flying squares.pteeff Gradient map.mp4 Pascal.

Igor. Congratulations to you and your team on creating the new version of the program! I wish you continued success and new exciting projects! Merry Christmas! Happy New Year! Warmth, joy, and new achievements! I checked out all the new features added to the program. Everything works great. I inserted a five-second clip. Everything worked perfectly, from acceleration to complete video stop. Thank you very much for your work.

Mark, thank you for sharing beautiful photos and videos! Amazing views, animals, birds, beautiful palaces and squares of Europe. Music can add accents. Sometimes lyrical, sometimes dynamic. Good luck! Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Joy and happiness to you and your family!

Thanks for sharing this - very well done animations. I am more of a photographer that makes AV's than a digital creator that makes presentation but I can appreiate the work in creating this. Thank you again for sharing. Mark

Hi everybody, Here's couple of new Styles with Transition:https://drive.google.com/file/d/1MEGRUVYCXZ3KBLNKOKeT9GptAKp3xD3F/view?usp=sharing I've used them with some variations to make flashback kind of slideshow. It's posted below. Best Alex55

Sort the images before importing by Date/Reverse order or Name. Apply the style to the images before or after importing. Publish as a video to view. Many newer cameras have a video timelapse option. Camera shutter speed should be 1/2 capture frame rate to add motion blur. If you capture at 5 second intervals the shutter speed should be 2.5 seconds. Thanks, Tom Update: Sep. 5 2025 Added 15 fps and 24 fps styles. Update Sep. 6, 2025 Added frame blending (dissolve transition) style for smoother video. Blending attempts to add synthetic motion blur but can create ghost images for fast moving objects. I also renamed regular version to quick. Update Sep 10,2025 Frame blending moved to another post in this thread. Timelapse Quick 30 fps.ptestyle Timelapse Quick 24 fps.ptestyle Timelapse Quick 15 fps.ptestyle

Hi Richard, Sasha (AleAle 5025 ) made many similar styles. Look here and remake as you need. Pattern. An Old Photo Album. Flipping through the photos Book 2 of 2022 Book Style I hope this helps you.
