Greetings, This question has been brought up before but I'd like to see if it can be addressed in V10. It would be very helpful if all files that are used in a project are reflected in the Files List, as the Main Objects are now in bold, or in some way to indicate they are being used in the project. Is this a possibility for V10? (including non-main objects, sound files, png files, etc.) Thanks... Gary

Greetings, That is exactly the high point of this program that I try to convey to anyone who I talk to about PTE. Really amazing cooperation/communication between maker and users! Gary

Greetings Manuel, I tried out your Cut Out and it is really neat! I modified my intro to my current project using it. Thanks... Gary

Igor, I had a feeling it was one of those more difficult things to do technically. Thanks... Gary

Greetings, I haven't really used Slide Styles much, but I was just experimenting with them. It seems you can not apply a Slide Style to an image that was added to an image in O&A. Is this true or is there a way to do that? Gary

Greetings, Border size is dependent of the resolution size of the object. I suggest to let us have a choice for an absolute and a relative border size. One that will be relative to the zoom or the size of the image (as it is now) and also be able to have a border that is independent (absolute) of the zoom or the size of the image. It would be more flexible to be able to select an absolute or a relative border size in the border menu. Gary

Igor, Sure. I have posted 5 projects, so far, using PTE 10 on my Facebook page (my recent trip to Scotland). https://www.facebook.com/gary.oddi Gary

Greetings, I am wondering why the 'Rotate Clockwise/Counterclockwise' does not work for video clips? For clips that don't need to be converted or trimmed, it would be convenient, or just to be able to view them right-side up before using O&A. Should it? Gary

Greetings, I understand a new Convert/Trim window is coming in future Betas. However, I find the current method is a bit difficult to set begin/end points for the Trim function. My suggestion is to be able to set the Trim begin/end points while in the MiniPlayer window (Timeline view). The idea is to set the Trim's begin/end points first in the MiniPlayer window, then hit the 'Convert/Trim' button in the main window, as seen in the screenprint. Then the current Convert/Trim window would then open with the already set Trim points and settings/adjustments can be made from there. The current Convert/Trim window is really too small to made adjustments to begin/end points. Gary

Greetings Denis, Thanks so much. Just gave it a try and it worked!!! Do you know why the audio from Hero7 clips are being distorted in PTE when it does not happen to clips from Hero 5? I don't see any difference in the audio specs that could create this problem. I hope Igor will test the PTE 10 to be sure that Hero7 files will work with it. Thanks again. Gary

Igor, What is strange is that I have not had problems using video clips in PTE from my Hero 5. I don't see any difference in the audio specs between the Hero 5 and the Hero 7. Can you see is there is a difference in the audio specs and what might be causing the problem? Not sure if it is a GoPro problem or something else. Can some test this short file in their PTE and see if the distorted audio problem also occurs with their PTE? Just trying to isolate what is causing the audio distortion. https://send.firefox.com/download/5ed040fba80b0a10/#K4FphpogAdIPb4tuFWf1AA (This link should be good for 7 days..)

Igor, Here is a sample of an GoPro Hero7 Black video clip the shows the problem. You can play it in Windows Media Player with no problems. But when you play it in the PTE player, the sound is distorted. Please take a look at it and see if you can tell what the problem is. (The 'send.firefox' link will be good for 7 days or 5 downloads.)

Greetings, I have not had any problems in the past with 'GoPro Hero 5 Black' audio when a clip has been converted in PTE. However, I am now using a 'GoPro Hero 7 Black' and the audio is terrible after I convert a clip in PTE. It sounds as if in a wind tunnel, totally unrecognizable. Here is a screenshot of the audio portion of the original GoPro clip and after it has been converted from MediaInfo. The sound is just fine before it is converted in PTE and plays fine in WindowsMediaPlayer. Can you see anything that points to the problem? Gary Added Later: The GoPro Hero 7 video clip's audio is distorted, whether it is the original clip or the converted clip when playing in the PTE player. The original clip plays just find if played through the Explorer. Not having the same problem with the Hero 5, no problem with its audio, when playing a converted clip in the PTE player. I attached the distorted audio portion of one of the clips from the Hero 7. GH010013.converted.mp3

Igor, Just to clarify, if I use an H.265 (HVAC) video clip in the upcoming PTE10, will the PTE's MP4 output be readable in computers that normally would not be able to play an H.265 clip? Gary

Igor, What is confusing is you say, in Handbrake, to change 'H.264' to 'MPEG4'. But you also say H.264 (AVC) is the same as MPEG4. Aren't you starting out trying to convert an H.265 video to H.264? Seems that we need to convert H.265 to H.264, to be useable in PTE9. The original posting has to do with using HEVC in PTE9 and needs to be converted. Where does HVEC (H.265) fit in? I understand that HVEC codec will be usable in PTE10, but it can be converted using Handbrake to H.264 (AVC) so it can be used in PTE9? Gary

Igor, When you said 'change "H.264" option to "MPEG-4"', did you mean 'H.265'? I'm getting a Hero7 so this caught my eye. I thought H.264 was MPEG-4. Or am I missing something? Gary

Glad it worked... Gary

Glad it worked out. The program I use is not very intuitive. Tried every combination of settings until I got it right. But I kept getting an error message, "Encoded JPG detected (Photodex)...". Was this show created by ProShow? Just curious. Gary

Greetings Cedric, I still have the program that should be able to extract images from a PTE exe file. I haven't used it in a long while and it is not an intuitive program. But, sure, if you can get it to me, I will be glad to give it a try. Hope I can remember how to do it. You can try a new way of sending files, mentioned by Igor. Try: https://send.firefox.com/ Seems pretty easy to use. I sent my email address to your PTE message box. Gary

Took me a while before I figured out what '3x3' meant. But you have to uncheck the 'In pixel' selection before entering the '3x3'. Gary

What's a 'ping'? Gary

Greetings Cedric, Super!!! I tested both versions of my show and it worked just fine. But I looked at Slide 8 and it is not blank. In fact, Slide 8 and Slide 9 are the same image of a map (Slide 9 does a zoom). Besides that, all looked good. Thanks.. Gary

Greetings, Thanks. I've attached a PTE file that give the error. Gary France Trip 2004-2.pte

Greetings, I gave the 'PTE Info' a try. Some worked, others not. For example, I have two versions of the same show, only changed the background music, and removed some images for the most part. For those that it does not work, I get the following error. Both versions of the show have a blank slide as Slide 1, if that matters: Any idea what it could be? Gary
