Mark, I created a test project which contains 8 images (a slow zoom animation) and one MP3 audio. Produced MP4 video is only 27 MB (42 seconds). 1920 x 1080, 25p. Quality = "100" (High quality). Can you check this project? The download link below: SampleShow_Sep24-2024_10-41-42.zip

Hi Andy, If you have any custom transitions, try to delete all of them. Restart PTE AV Studio. And check again bulk transitions as you did earlier. Before deleting custom transitions, close PTE AV Studio and make a backup of the folder "Styles and Transitions". Usually it's located in the Documents > PicturesToExe folder.

Mark, Do you use Quality mode or Bitrate mode? We recommend to use Quality mode (High quality or Medium quality preset). It will provide a smart video compression for images in a created MP4 video and compact file size.

Hi Catherine, Please tell in more details about this issue. You can use Google Translate or DeepL.com service for English translation. Alternatively, you can visit French forum: https://diapositif.org/forum/

Hi, I apologize for this problem with macOS 15 Sequoia. We've noticed this issue since Release Candidate version several days ago on Macs with Apple silicon. It seems that Apple is making significant changes to the final version that have broken compatibility. We plan to fix it quickly. I found a temporary workaround: 1. Open Finder > Applications. 2. Select the PTE AV Studio app, then go to File > Get Info in the menu bar. 3. Check the option "Open using Rosetta". Run PTE AV Studio. Close the app. 4. Turn off the option "Open using Rosetta". Run PTE AV Studio. The app will continue to work in a native mode on Apple silicon. It should help.

Hi, We'll introduce our new product this fall. And then PTE 12 will be shown. We already added new fuctions and effects for V12.

Hi, Probably you worked in the Timeline mode? A blank slide is being inserted into cursor position (red vertical line). Switch to the Slide List mode. Select the first slide. Press Option + S, or choose "Insert Blank Slide" from a popup menu.

Hi, Wonderful show and very impressive animation, especially at the beginning! Bravo! I noticed an interesting fact in your AV show. The last picture shows the yellow brick road leading to the Emerald City. This picture is from an upcoming local film coming out next January, "Wizard of the Emerald City" This is a local remake of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. Here's the teaser/trailer for the new film: It’s another miracle that such a film could be created in such a difficult time...

Thanks for your answers and opinions!

Mary, Glad that you solved that issue!

Hi Mary, Probably there was a typo in the new Templates folder path? Wrong folder. I recommend to uninstall PTE AV Studio and reinstall it again. By default, a new Templates folder will be located in Documents: Documents\PicturesToExe\Templates If you will not find your old templates there, check your folders: D:\PicturesToExe\Templates\ D:\PicturesToExe\ where you tried to place the templates earlier. Close PTE AV Studio and manually move the templates to Documents\PicturesToExe\Templates 2. Then you can try again to move the templates to desired location in the Preferences window > Templates tab. I recommend to click the "Change" button to choose a new folder for the templates in the Open folder/file window. Please don't type a new folder path manually, because it may lead to typos and freezing.

Hi, Thanks for your response. Good luck! P.S. I just started a new topic on the forum:

Hi, In V11 we introduced an option "Save a copy of .pte project file in a .bak file" (Preferences > Project tab). It's disabled by default. I see that sometimes users face the problem of losing their projects due to computer crash. What do you think if we enable this option by default for all users in a future version? This will help to restore damaged project by renaming the .bak file to a .pte project.

PTE AV Studio 11.0.14 is available for PC and Mac Download: https://www.wnsoft.com/pte-av-studio/download/ Or use Auto Update feature: Main menu > Help > Check for Free Updates Fixed rare problem with reading certain JPEG images (if pixels were not encoded in YUV format). Fixed problem with the “Adjust Time Range” button for a video clip when a slide style is applied. Fixed issue with double \\ in file paths of images in a project saved as a Template and then copied to another PC (Windows only). The installation files are the same as recent public Beta version.

Daniel, Yes, iPhone offers good fast results and no manual control. PTE AV Studio is designed for creative people and offers advanced features and fine-tuned manual control.

Hi, Thanks for choosing PTE AV Studio again! Hope that you'll recover your project. Good luck! I'll start a new topic regarding the option "Save a copy of .pte project file..." activated by default for new users.

It's a good advice. Try this suggestion. Your recovered project contains the links to files (images) from a folder: E:\1-PTE AV Shows\00-Working Project\2024 Med\Photos\ Copy the project file to this folder and open it.

Hi Judy, A good question. I think, software like PTE is the point/station where you create a montage of images/video/audio/text. You have a fine control over everything you do in a project. And you need to use other apps (camera software, image editor, audio editor, text editor) where Ai (neural engine) can be intensively used for content creation. You then add this content to PTE and complete the final edit. Maybe I don’t see all the possibilities for using NPU yet. But we are tracking all related news.

Many thanks for your responses and wishes! I was 18 years old when we released the first version of PTE, 25 years ago.

Hi, We'll implement the nested blur in V12.

Hi John, I apologize for this problem. If PTE AV Studio can open the recovered project, it will automatically load the next time you launch the app after a crash. I recommend to enable the following option. In the main menu > Settings > Preferences. Project tab. "Save a copy of .pte project file...". It will help next time, if the same problem will occur again. Also periodically use a command "Create backup in a ZIP" from the main menu > File menu. It creates a full backup of your project.

Thank you very much!

Many thanks for your responses and warm wishes!

Hi, We're celebrating 25 years of PTE AV Studio in July 2024. Quarter of century! P.S. V12 is under active development.

Hi Ian, Yes, we're working on PTE 12 and have a good progress on new features. We'll also show a completely new app soon. It is a small product.
