Hi, here are some transitions I've created with the help of a friend who gave me a hand with a few minor issues. Since these are my first ones, I'd like to share them with you. https://www.mediafire.com/file/0kqiuqzxbo61z9f/Papel_Unido_v.2.rar/file

A little late, but... I have a small gift for you in connection with the release of version 12 of the program. A set of transitions for your creativity. I hope you find them useful. Thank you. ZigZag Fold Transitions PTE AV 12 includes three transition options: A standard package of four transitions, A 9x16 version for vertical videos, A version with sound effects.

Hi, here are some transitions for you; I hope you can use them if you like them. https://www.mediafire.com/file/gw0ot8t04q2z5o3/4K_numeric_transitions.rar/file

Hi everybody, The Project you see was created entirely in PTE 12. All the pictures are 9x16 Aspect Ratio. Just replace the Placeholders in " .EDIT" folders with pictures or videos of your choice. There's a Transitions ,so you can use any number of the Slides. The Link to the Project is included .

Hello everyone. I present to you 8 transitions in the “Light Film Frame” style for your creative work. The download link is in the release description on YouTube.

It is set against the unforgiving landscape of the Dust Bowl that happened in the Great Plains region of the United States during the 1930s. The song tells a story of hardship, resilience, family, and the stubborn determination to keep moving forward when everything seems lost. This project is a hybrid human-AI collaboration. The song concept, lyrics and video were completely written, directed, and produced by humans at Starfire Media. Assistive AI technology was utilized to shape the instrumentation and vocal layers based on original human songwriting. I created the video entirely in version 12 of PTE AV using many public domain photographs by Dorothea Lange from the Dust Bowl era to which I added various animations, as well as AI generated images and some of my original photographs. It is difficult to imagine what these people must have experienced almost 100 years ago.

Reworked D drive and now using it. Thanks all for the help!

Hi, Today the forum and PTE online help site were slow or hard to reach. I'm sorry for this problem! The cause: heavy traffic from AI bots/crawlers. More than 2 millions visits last 24 hours. This time bots were running on Google Cloud public servers, which made it tricky to block them without also blocking real Google services. I found a fix and the sites should now work normally. Thanks for your patience!

The song concept and lyrics were completely written, directed, and produced by my partner, while AI was used to shape the instrumentation and vocal layers based on original human songwriting. The music video features a blend of actual video footage and photography (mostly mine), some of which was animated with AI. Entire video created in PTE AV. I hope you enjoy it.

I recently visited the village of Oradour Sur Glane nr Limoges in France. The scene of one of the most infamous horrors of WWll. Its not a place to be a photographer or even a tourist. You can only be a witness. It doesn't lend itself to creativity in the presentation. All you can do is watch as time marches on.

Hi, You can send Barry a personal message with this question: https://www.pteavstudio.com/forums/profile/671-barry-beckham Or perhaps Barry will see your question and answer it himself.

Hi, I see the problem with this style (confetti) in V12. We’ll check the code today.

Hi SoCu I confirm this style works well with PTE 11 and unfortunately the confetti appears white with PTE 12

SoCu, This Style works OK with Version 11. Original Post is here: https://www.pteavstudio.com/forums/topic/20848-confetti/#comment-138292 Possibly Igor can throw some light on this?? DG

I asked AI about your problem 🙂 1. Toggle Hardware Acceleration (Most Common Fix) PTE relies heavily on the computer’s graphics card to encode MP4 videos. A recent graphics driver update can sometimes cause errors. [1] Have him go to the Publish menu -> HD or 4K Video. Look for the Hardware Acceleration checkbox at the bottom of the window. If it is checked, uncheck it and try publishing again (or vice versa). [1] 2. Check the Destination Folder (Permissions Issue) Sometimes Windows or macOS blocks PTE from writing a new video file to certain directories due to recent security updates. Ensure he is not trying to publish directly to an external hard drive, a USB flash drive, or a cloud-synced folder (like OneDrive, Google Drive, or Dropbox). Have him change the destination path to a simple, local folder directly on his main drive, like a folder on his desktop or local C:\ drive. 3. Scan for a "Corrupt" Asset or Missing File Because the failure happens on this exact project file across multiple versions, there is likely a single corrupt or unsupported image, audio track, or video clip embedded in the timeline. [1] Look for missing files: If a file was moved or renamed, PTE might show a "File Not Found" warning on the timeline. Isolate video clips: If he has embedded shorter .mp4 or .mov video clips inside his slideshow, one of those clips might have a codec that is choking the encoder. Have him temporarily remove any video clips from the timeline and see if the show publishes as an MP4 with just the stills. [1, 2] 4. Create a Clean Test Zip To verify if it's a system issue or a file path issue, he should use the built-in backup utility: Go to the main menu -> File -> Create Backup in Zip. Save that zip file to his desktop, unzip it into a brand new folder, and open the new .pte file from there. Try publishing from this clean, consolidated folder. [1] 5. Check for Third-Party Interference Sometimes antivirus software flags the temporary encoding processes PTE uses to build an MP4 as suspicious, blocking the file creation. He can try temporarily pausing his antivirus program for 5 minutes just to see if the video publishes successfully.

Try loading the Sample Project from HELP. Publish at the same settings - will that publish OK? If so, start looking at the content of your project. How many slides, Images, Videos etc. DG

Is drive D a Physical drive on your computer? Is it connected via USB - if yes then try disconnecting & reconnecting Does it have enough free space? Can you create an exe on the same drive? Try a different Drive & see if it will create I cannot see anything wrong with your settings. Jill

Okay, so the transitions have been added in reverse order. When you add this second transition, the first image displayed is the previous slide so the effect isn't the same as before. I've put the link in the first post; I removed the previous one since those transitions are included in this version, and I've also changed the video to show what they look like.

Hi SoCu, I understand what you try to do - make a bigger copy of the text object under the normal text, to look like an outline effect. The problem is - when you make the font size bigger, the letters don't grow the same on all sides. Bigger letters shift a bit and cover the small text more on one side, less on other side. This is why outline look normally in some places and not OK in other places. Jill's idea is the right way for this - use Ring Shadow to simulate outline effect. P.S. Your pictures are on Imgur web service, and Jill can not see them, because of regional limitations of Imgur. Better to upload pictures as attachment to your post here on forum, not link to outside service.

Beautifully put together—it immediately draws you in and makes you want to try it out yourself. It’s truly impressive. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you Alex for sharing. I've recently repurchased PTE since I stopped using Proshow and have been replicating some of my favorite transition and styles. Its incredibly helpful to take a peek at some of the amazing and original transitions and styles you have created.

PTE describes positions and sizes of objects using percents. Pixel values are not involved. So, if you work in O&A using percent (%) for the inputs of Pan and Zoom, the precise values of "Virtual size of slide" don't play any role, provided that the entries describe the correct aspect ratio. So, for any 16to9-project it does not make a difference, if the virtual size is 3840x2160, or 1920x1080, or just 16x9. The situation is different if you work with Pan and Zoom in the uncomfortable way using pixels (px). In this case you should chose for virtual size the resolution of the device on which in the end the show will be presented. Nevertheless, as said above, in PTE's project files pixel values for Pan and Zoom will not occur. Everything will be transformed to percents. And working in O&A with percents allows you to position the objects with high precision.

Magnifique !!!! Merci pour ce nouveau projet partagé ! Henry

As always astounding and thanks!

Thank you, Alex for sharing this slidestyle. Much appreciated. Rosemary

chanfi22, digartal, Thank you guys. Appreciate yours comments. This new V12 is fun to work with. You can dig in and still there's a way to go. Best Alex

Thanks appreciate this, now have to create a project to use it.

Thanks, appreciate you sharing this to the group.

Fantastic - thanks for sharing. Appreciate the skill involved creating this and thanks so much for sharing.

I love these kinds of transitions, thank you

Very creative, thank you.

Thank you so much for sharing these.

OK now, but it was offline from about 21.00 gmt until around 10.00 this morning. Thanks Igor. DG

Thanks for all your hard work to keep the Forum Running. It is much appreciated Jill

Very moving. Nice music choice, nicely photographed. Nice production

Hi, a comment about the backup function. I usually organize my files by dividing them into various folders based on their intended use (photos, other images, maps, tables, music, sounds, etc.). When I unzip the backup zip file, all the hundreds of files are grouped into a single folder, making it nearly impossible for me to make any changes. Wouldn't it be more convenient, if possible, for the backup zip file to replicate the same tree structure as the original folders?

As Mark says very well done. Music and vocals worked well. As you say difficult to imagination what they went through and the production shows the times well, emotionally

Very well done and enjoyable to watch. Great work by all involved.

Thanks Igor! This 9:16 aspect crop works well and is very handy. I will find it useful for some of the included Triptych styles as well so I don't have to crop images externally before inserting them into a show.

Which Version of PTE are you using & are you Windows or Mac? Where are you trying to save it to? If a Flash Drive make sure it is big enough. Better to save to your computer Hard Drive first & then copy to the Flash drive afterwards. Make sure you are not trying to save to a drive that is not connected, such as external or Cloud storage. Other than that I am not sure why it would stay at 0% Jill

Hello everyone. The project is a demonstration of the new features of the 12th version of the program, now with layer overlays. The Light Leaks overlay now works relatively correctly, relatively because the mask effect has to be applied to the entire composition, not just to a layer, and the overlay of the image on the folding paper works correctly.

Igor has asked me to post a link to my new AV sequence. The background is that my AV Group had a challenge to produce a new sequence using some form of AI, either images, video or audio. I decided to make one about Yuri Gagarin's pioneering space flight in 1961. Very few images exist of this, so the use of AI was a good option to re-imagine the story. See what you think:

Hi, In PTE AV Studio 12 we've added a new "Blending" mode to the Mask container with support for 9 blend operations: Linear Dodge (Add), Subtract, Multiply, Screen, Lighten, Darken, Overlay, Hard Light, and Soft Light. To use: place the first image into the Stencil, and the second image into the Content of the Mask container. You can add video, text object, rectangle object, or multiple objects (several images, for example). Watch a video example. Click the play button: BlendMode.mp4 BlendMode.zip

Bad Danser. Hi! You have attached the logo to ant. Using PTE AV Studio or After Effects. Good job.

Hi Mike, There is no "Free transformation" function in PTE, and the layer changes the side lengths proportionally when zooming. You can cut a hole in a third-party image in a photo of a building, say in Photoshop, and add your photo or video with an underlying layer. You can also create a white mask of the desired size and shape in Photoshop and place it as the top layer above the photo of the building, in this case you can add a shadow. An example of applying a mask from a video:

Hi Pascal, What a super cool effect !!!! Bravo !!!! Best regards, Lin
