Try downloading and installing the most up to date v9 from here: https://www.wnsoft.com/en/pte-av-studio/old-versions/ If that fails you might consider upgrading to v10.5 - your project will be compatible with the latest version. DG

Not knowing anything about Pro Show it is difficult to know where to start. Export your individual shows as mp4 or Executables. If you want to create a self running sequence of shows then I think that you will need Exe files. Construct a Menu slide with Buttons or Text etc. Each object can be linked to a specific show via "Action on mouse click" in the properties tab of Objects and Animation. The last slide of any show can be configured to play another show. Normally you would be returned to the Menu to choose your "next show". Please experiment. If you have any specific questions, please ask. See this page in the OH for info on "Action on Mouse Click": https://docs.pteavstudio.com/en-us/10.0/objectsandanimation_1/properties_tab DG

Presumably, the unzipped file is a Style (.ptestyle)?? Import the Style. Add the required number of images to the slide list. Select all the Slides and Apply the Style. https://docs.pteavstudio.com/en-us/10.0/slide-styles/main DG

You could add the sound as a video clip inside the Transition. Choose the Transition / Manage Transitions / Change Transition Settings / Edit the Transition / Add a video clip to the background of the transition. DG

Maybe it is a Mac peculiarity. Perhaps Igor can suggest something? DG

Check this Setting for the Menu:

It is not my method but rather my suggestion, but nevertheless it is a tried and tested method for emergencies. The title of this thread suggests that the sequence being copied is "complete" and as such does not require further adjustment. It is something that Igor can possibly address in a future version. DG

Export the Audio of the Second .pte as a high quality MP3 and use the exported file in place of the original audio linked to Slide One of the second .pte. This should maintain proper synchronisation of the audio of the second show when copied and pasted to the first. DG

You can "Screen Grab" the EXE while it is playing and export that as an mp4. The GeForce App does a good job if you have an nVidia Card. DG

Does it happen in Preview? DG

On my Nikon Cameras the appropriate setting (for stills) is "Rotate Tall". There does not appear to be an equivalent setting for Movies. I assume that I would therefore have to rotate the movie in O&A. I would not wish to use any other method. DG

Probably in Objects and Animation? Select the Text in the Text Box in the Properties Tab of O&A and change to whatever you require. I do not have the Style so just guessing. Check that it is not an option when Applying the Style? DG

Used Images are marked with BOLD (coloured) TEXT. This does not currently apply to Images added in Objects and Animation.

Try here: https://diaporashop.com/en/categorie/transition/ In PTE you can design and produce your own Transitions. DG

I tried this just out of interest and could not duplicate the reported problem. 1. Copied Text from source. 2. Add Text Object - the word Text is already highlighted. 3. Paste Text - The cursor remains at the end of the line of text pasted. (Windows 10)

In addition to the above comments regarding Video, I would like to see video clips presented at Full Slide Duration and not freeze suddenly at the beginning of the following transition. DG

The .exe that you clicked on "triggered" the .ptshow. That is how a Safe Executable for PC works. The exe was of the order of 14mb. Have you now upgraded to 10.5 - it is a free upgrade. DG

PTE 7.5 will not open a .ptshow. Regarding Version 10, the latest version is 10.5. You should be using that. Can you tell us where it came from? Is it a "Show for Mac"? Was it one of the files in a Safe Executable for PC? If you put ANY exe file from a Safe Executable for PC in a folder with the .ptshow file and double click on the .exe, it will run the .ptshow. You will be asked to identify the .ptshow that you want to run but it should work. It works for me. DG

Thanks. I was going by a screen shot of the Mac Publish Show button options. DG

Safe Executable is the only (exe) option you mac users have so maybe people should get more familiar with their use in both camps. Standardisation is imperative to make things as easy as possible for all. DG

I believe that the mac will play the .pteav file contained in a Save Executable produced by a Windows PC. Am I correct? DG

PTE 9 is available for download here: https://www.wnsoft.com/en/pte-av-studio/old-versions/ You would certainly benefit from an upgrade to Version 10 (now 10.5) - you can download V10 as a trial for 30 days and it will install in a different directory keeping V9 intact. Have you checked your Junk folder for replies from WNSOFT Support? DG

Len, Please explain your problem? DG

I tried using this method from a Menu and although it works I wonder if some will think it an annoyance to have to re-direct the .pteav file in order to work. It would (perhaps) interrupt the flow of a sequence of shows (on a Windows PC) where the shows are a mixture of Windows .exe files and MAC .pteav shows? DG
