Taking advantage of the new transition editor in Pte AV Studio 12, which saved a lot of time when creating them, I made 20 transitions, each approximately 10 seconds long. In this case, the slide has a duration of 9.90 seconds, the same as the transition. I'm including a link in case anyone wants to try them. https://javier-pteavstudio.blogspot.com/2026/06/particles-transitions.html

Hi everybody, Here's a Slideshow I think is good to memorize a family vacation. Just replace the files marked "Replace me" with Photo or Video of your choice. You can find them in Folders marked ".EDIT" Note you have to adjust Location and Size of the replacement. The Link provided. Best Alex 55

Hello everyone. A retro-style design project for you. Download link and description on YouTube.

Hi Peter. I made a style similar to yours, but not exactly like the original. This is the simplest version with straight corners of the vignette. There is a style file and a project file in the project folder. I have included the project file in case you want to modify the design according to your preferences. The style name is random, but its animation resembles a similar preset with alternating images in After Effects. Photos in the style are cropped with a 16x9 aspect ratio. Keep this in mind when using photos with other sizes, or disable the "Crop" feature in the project and save the style with a different name.

Hi everybody. I saw a video with a heron from Digital and decided to offer this kind of design for such files. It is not necessary to use the entire project. You can apply one or more slides. All text blocks are editable. The slide duration can be extended for easier reading of the text. The slide movements are edited by the overall frame. Due to the lack of layer overlay modes in the program, the file with the crumpled paper effect is superimposed with a change in the opacity of the layer, adjust it yourself if necessary.

Hi everybody. 10 transitions in the style of an Old Film Frame for your creativity. The download link is in the description of the video on YouTube. https://youtu.be/Gskzy8bzjYw

Version 12 of PTE AV Studio introduces a new effect mode: Gradient Map, applied to a Mask Stencil. This mode makes it possible to create dynamic visual effects using a grayscale image as a control mask. A preset called Spots is included, with fully customizable parameters. I am offering a tool that generates grayscale images specifically designed to be used as control masks for the Gradient Map effect. This generator creates images made of gradient‑based bands and provides control over the following parameters: - band structure (number and orientation) - grayscale gradient ranges (start/end values + modes) - wave distortions (sine or triangle) - natural perturbations (Perlin noise) - reproducibility (seed) - high‑definition image export This tool therefore helps expand the library of available masks for PTE AV Studio 12. The interface is originally in French, but a language selector on the web page allows you to translate it into another language. The translation may not always be perfect, but it should help you understand the meaning of the parameters. Here is the link to the tool, the parameter description page, and a demonstration showcasing several example masks generated with it: - parameter description link : https://diaporashop.com/generateur-de-bandes-en-degrade-gris/ - direct link to the generator tool : https://diaporashop.com/bandes-en-degrade-gris/ I hope you find this tool useful. A video demonstration of the results achieved: Pascal.

Hi, In PTE AV Studio 12 (Beta 13+) hold the Shift key while dragging a sound volume keypoint in the Timeline to adjust it with finer precision - the keypoint moves 3x slower than your mouse cursor, giving you 3x better accuracy when fine-tuning the value. Watch a video demonstration. Click the play button: audio-keypoints-with-shift-key.mp4

You're right, thanks. When creating a new transition, its duration is fixed at 2 seconds, and only a portion of the video is displayed (for your video, that's 2 seconds out of 10 seconds). After the user applies a custom transition, all objects are automatically scaled (including the video speed) to match the user-selected duration. This will also ensure the display of animations and video objects is not disrupted. We'll try to add a new parameter to the custom transition editing window: transition duration.

JRR, thanks for the feedback! Indeed, quite often the AI doesn't understand (can't, won't, or imposes its opinion), and you have to repeat it several times to achieve the desired effect.

Amazing what Ai (and you) can do. Many, at quick glance, didn't look Ai produced, a few did While I personally didn't care for some of the images, they were are all well done Congrats

Hi, We plan to release the final version 12.0 in June 2026. Prices will remain the same as for version 11.0. Check our website for details.

Thanks for the response, Jill. I just wanted to be sure I wasn't missing something. Not the best option but your idea of creating separate projects might work. I will experiment.

Hello, We're currently working on one more major feature for V12 and hope to include it in the final release. Thanks for your patience! Igor,

Thank you so much for sharing this project, it is greatly appreciated. Generally, for mobile images, I use a free Android application that uses AI to create shows and then edit/adjust them. I had been trying to create a template for my Windows PC. I find it easier to use "hands on" rather than using tutorials. Using an existing project and editing it, I find that process more useful. After downloading this folder, I used this project and changed the size and orientation to make 2 AV's. This one uses images from a mobile phone. This one uses the amera format/orientation. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge and skills. I have a few other ideas for editing the project I will look at. Mark

Hi everybody, Love this song. Tried to find suitable Styles to fit. Here's the result. Note, this is 16x9 Aspect ratio, so choose pictures accordingly or crop the aspect to 16x9. Best Alex55

Try the new Beta 13 (V12). Hold the Shift key while dragging a sound volume keypoint with the mouse cursor in the Timeline to adjust it with finer, slower precision. Accuracy is improved by 3x. We cannot use the arrow keys for sound volume editing because the keypoints have no focus. I hope that the solution with the Shift key and mouse editing will be a good alternative.

Trying to keep up with the times, I installed a program for working with and generating images and videos using artificial intelligence (AI). Using and testing various AI models and corresponding prompts, I tried to achieve the most realistic images and representations of people, interiors, events, and settings in various conditions. How and what I got is up to you to judge. Enjoy.

mhwarner, The computer program for working with and generating images, videos, and audio using AI on prompt is called ComFyUI. It's free. The program itself is relatively small, 5-5.5 GB, but that's only half the battle. The sheer number of models and libraries it contains is what takes up the most space. Models for anime, children, men, women, formal models, erotic and semi-erotic, for different body parts (separate models for the face, arms, legs, body, figure, gait, etc.), body structure for men and women, children, animals, and so on. And all this is separate for images and videos. All this takes up a huge amount of space on your computer. My relatively small selection of models took up 2 TB (terabytes), and that should fit on a single drive. But that's only half the battle. The program, like the AI itself, is very sensitive to computer power. Weak, and even mid-range, computers are not suitable for modern AI. My images took 0.5-5 minutes to generate, depending on the AI model's complexity. But videos... from 10 minutes to over 2.5 hours, and I didn't expect them to last any longer and cancelled the generation. When generating long and large videos, the video card heats up to 90 degrees Celsius, which is very harmful. Moreover, (according to some rumors) the program was developed for new and modern high-performance video cards, such as the Nvidia RTX 4090-5090 and newer. And your computer's memory (RAM) should be at least 32 GB, and preferably 64 GB or more. Therefore, for image generation, photo editing, and short video generation, it's best to use AI-powered platforms with processing power thousands of times greater than any computer. Sites like Qwen and Grok offer a wide range of plans and payment methods. There you can improve photos, animate them, colorize old photos, and much more. Good luck! P.S. I published the styles used in this work here a year or two ago. If remember it under the name "Moving Line," look for it in the Styles section.

What program are you using? I personally am more interested in using AI to automate my own still photos into videos and several programs have done a decent job but most have limits which change on a regular basis. I don't mind paying if I could find one that was consistently good with any limits stated up front. Also, I really like many of the transitions used in this video. Have you shared any of these in the past or would you be willing to share now? Thanks in advance!

Well done! Thanks for sharing!

Hi Mark, I actually use ON1 Photo RAW with Affinity (the Canva version). TBH I was a user of LR for many years but objected to the subscription model that Adobe went to so jumped ship and after a lot of research found that ON1 worked for me, especially since I could import the LR edits. Have been with ON1 since way before Covid. So no technical reason for moving away from Adobe eco system. Having said that I am perfectly happy with ON1 and Affinity. Both are stable with my Windows 11 system and do what I want. Mike

NIcely done

Good luck next month

Hello all... I'm very new to this program - in fact, I just purchased it today as of this writing. I saw enough to fall in love with the program, but I do have one initial question that I couldn't find in the user guide. I've just created a slide show for a friend, but with the photos and everything, the total slide show came to 140 Megabytes. How can I save the project in a smaller format - or do I have to save it in a compressed format? Is there a way to compress or make smaller prior to saving the project? Thanks, Bernd Herrmann

Greetings, Thanks, I like the way of left-clicking on the Audio Clip in the Timeline and all the Tracks show up. I, then, can just drag down the separated audio clip in Track 1 down into Track 2. And then delete the empty Track 1. This helps to consolidate the audio clips. When you Separate Audio from Video, it puts the audio clip in its own Track and that can become messy when you do a lot of them. Thanks for the tip, Gary

Thanks for sharing. I am glad the original post gave you some inspiration to create this. My idea was initially just to create a simple text for a single image AV when posting on social platforms, but this is next level. Regards Mark

Bernd: Congrats on creating the AV show. Re the user guide, did you look at the Online help at: https://docs.pteavstudio.com/en-us/11.0/main

Very nice and interesting effet. Thank you for sharing.Thank'

Nice effect when carefully used Thanks

Very nice work, and a really beautiful song too... Well done! You must spend hours on PTE, but it's definitely worth it. What mastery of this wonderful software... once again, congratulations.

The commentary in this sequence was written by me, but read by Grok AI in the accent I determined. So, for those who find commentary a bit challenging, here is a way to avoid all the microphone issues, mis-spoken words and spoiled recordings and no dealing with noise in the audio

Thanks, I have some infrared images that I can use this style on. Mark

Nice work on the text personally I'd prefer changing images every 3-5 seconds

Hi Mary, I think what you suggest is the only way. Split the audio and link it to the specific slides. But every time you add in extra slides (or remove slides) that portion of the audio will shift. Unless you add/remove in Timeline View, which can be tricky. Something you could try is to maybe copy a section of Slides that you are looking at changing to a new project and play with it there. Then once happy copy those slides back to your main project. It is not going to be easy whichever way you do it. This is why I almost always build up my projects and sounds one step at a time, making sure I am happy before adding the next section. Good luck Jill

The style works well with the images - well done.

Hi, Thanks, I cofirm this issue. We'll fix it this week.

It only occurs if the style is applies to the last slide. If applied to an intermediate slide it works ok for me. As a temporary workaround, add a blank or "dummy" slide before applying your style. Hopefully, Igor will chip in. DG

Well done Effective effects (😊)

Well produced Looks like a mixed Goth/Steamboat event

"Thank you for your kind words and for crediting the author. I'm glad the template was helpful for your work. Wishing you great success with your presentation!"

Hi, I noticed Chrome browser keeps making new windows slightly larger and shifting them down and to the right each time. At some point I realized I was wasting minutes and hours a year just constantly resizing and repositioning windows. So I wrote a small Chrome extension to fix it. You set your preferred size and position once, and it stays that way for every new window. Tested on Windows 11. Free, no ads, no permissions, full privacy. https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/save-window-size/laobinpnagidgbnnokbidnghnjnlmfkh Hope someone finds it useful. Maybe it's especially useful when you use HiDPI scale 125% and more. Igor,

Nice work with good choice of music and PIP effects. Well done.

Wanderlust, It wasn't difficult to do. By the way, the width of the vignette is also adjustable. I wish you success in your creative work.
