Other media files snap to these, making it easier to precisely position your content.Īnd similarly, the new Automatic Beat Detection tool can analyze a soundtrack and add its own timeline markers to highlight major changes, helping you synchronize effects and transitions with your music. Video clips on the timeline may now be displayed as continuous thumbnails, for instance, helping you see where scenes start and end. Right-clicking the timeline ruler at a particular point allows you to add a custom-named timeline marker ("At the beach").
And some useful new additions will further simplify your life. In general, the interface is well-designed and easy-to-use, though, with tooltips and quality documentation to walk you through any initial problems.
We’d appreciate more thumbnail size options (right now you get 80 pixel, 100 pixel, and that’s it), and initially at least the sheer number of buttons and right-click options can be intimidating. You can’t simply use the Media Room to browse to a folder and examine its contents, for instance: you have to import particular files or folders, and then view them.
This isn’t an entirely perfect arrangement. By default the Edit option is selected, but you may also click Capture, to import media directly from DV or HDV camcorders, webcams, microphones and more clicking Produce allows you to turn your movie into a video, or upload it online and Create Disc presents a host of disc and menu authoring options. Launch PowerDirector 10 Ultra and you’re presented with a familiar three-pane editing interface: media files, effects, transitions and more are displayed top-left an excellent preview window (including the option to preview in a secondary 2D or 3D display) is top-right and there’s a 100-track timeline across the bottom of the screen, where you may drag and drop clips and effects to build up your movie.įour buttons at the top of the screen offer further guidance. But how does the program behave in real life? We took a closer look. And there are smarter audio tools, more video sharing options, and ease of use improvements, as well as speed boosts which could see movie rendering time cut in half. Plug-in support delivers 10 new "art effects" (“hand drawn”, "pastel" and so on).
