Thanks for your messages! We know several issues with time values (duration). We need some time to fix it. Speed is not applied to the preview in Trim and Adjust Speed window yet. We'll fix it.

Thanks for these examples. I've understood. We'll think how to implement it correctly. There is a problem - some languages have symbols which should not be de-normalized (without accents). For example, German or Norwegian.

Denis, does it work automatically (without a special option)?

Thanks for the confirmation

Hi, Please wait - did I understand rightly that if you remove all custom transitions, any builit-in transitions are applied to a slide quickly and without delay? So, you select a built-in transition (i.e. Default transition or Dissolve), click the OK button, and the Slide Options window quickly closes? Does the issue occur only if there are some imported (or created) custom transitions in the library, even if they are not currently in use? In your first video in the 1st message above, I saw a delay in closing the Slide Options window, but I didn't see any custom transitions in the list of available transitions. If I understand all rightly, could you please send me all the custom transitions you use in PTE AV Studio? It would be better if you send a ZIP copy of the entire "Styles and Transitions" folder. Write me a personal message through the forum with the download link. Thanks in advance,

I guess that you speak about search filter for slide styles, not transitions? It's an important point, thank you. My native language doesn't have diacritical symbols, so I didn't know about this point. Can you give me 4-5 examples so we can check how this should work? How this implemented in other programs? Are diacritical symbols also ignored in search?

Now V12 Beta 5 can create project ZIP archives larger than 2 GB.

Hi, Please try the new Beta 5. The program will no longer freeze during video encoding for projects containing trimmed video objects. If you change a speed of a video object, the result will be visible in MP4 video export, mini-player, full-screen preview, and the Objects and animation window. It is not yet available in the Trim and Adjust Speed window preview - we will add this in a future Beta.

Try new Beta 5. We correctly normalized all sound files in the library (-3 dB).

Beta 5 is available See the download links above. Added support for creating ZIP archives of projects larger than 2 GB. Sound library: improved audio volume consistency. Fixed an issue where video export would freeze when a project contains a trimmed video object. Updated Dutch, French translations.

Hi, Thanks for your reply. The Controlled Folder Access option works regardless of the chosen antivirus. This option prevents files from being written to system folders and some user folders, including Documents and Desktop. Let me clarify just in case - does the long delay on closing Slide Options (transitions tab) occur even when there are no imported custom transitions? Only built-in transitions. If yes, can you try to manually delete Styles and Transitions folder from Documents > PicturesToExe? Close PTE AV Studio before deleting the folder. Try also create a new project template (main menu > File > Templates > Create template... Please note how quickly the template creation window closes and whether the main program window interface will work immediately after closing. Could you try the new PTE AV Studio 12 Beta and compare the speed of closing the Slide Options window?

Hi, Honestly, I'm puzzled by this problem. Please check if you have Controlled Folder Access enabled in Windows 11 (10). To check this, open Windows Security (search for it in Start menu), go to Virus & Threat protection, then click on Manage ransomware protection. Look for Controlled Folder Access setting and let me know if it's turned On or Off. Don't change it now. Do you have a local hard drive or SSD? Did you have this delay BEFORE v11.0.20?

Hello, Beta version V12 is already available. The final version should be ready in March.

I'd suggest waite a little while we checking another issue of the slow closing the Slide Options window. These issues may be related.

Could you please check 2 more things: 1. Uninstall and reinstall PTE AV Studio. If it didn't help: 2. Temporarily disable ESET antivirus and check how quickly the Slide Options window (with transitions) closes on clickin the OK button. Forgot to ask - if you click the Cancel button, how fast Slide Options window closes?
