Powerdirector 17 is awesome...I am glad I found you on RUclips !!!! You are making my video better than I did before I found your channel....Thanks you so much ✌✌✌👍👍👍👍😁
Thanks for your videos. They are very informative and helpful. I was wondering if you can guide me on how to transform/skew videos in the new edition of PowerDirector. In the past, I was able to just move the mouse cursor to the edge of the video frame, hover over it, and the cursor changes to a small triangle that I can use to "tranform/distort/change" the shape of the video frame. I could make it look flat, or like a parallelogram, or any type of four sided shape. Since the new powerdirector update, I can no longer do this. How do you transform/flatten/adjust/skew/change the perspective of the video frame in powerdirector now?
A good tutorial here again , The first video I have ever made was a slide show and I plan on making some more down the road again. Thanks again Maleik.
Hi Maliek. Thank you, I learn a lot from your videos. I am a minister and at this moment I use the program to edit. I also want to use it to make my slideshow presentations that I use when I preach. Is there a way for me to manually move from one slide to another without the timing setting? I do livestreaming of the sermons. I want to use the same slides that I show to the audience in livestreaming.
Hello. Thanks for watching. No there isn't a way to manually control the slide/image change. You would have to pause your video player when you want to pause the show. If that doesn't work you would have to use PowerPoint if you need to control when the slides change.
I'm using PD19 and I would like to make a slideshow with the 'cell' or 'highligt' style, customise my slideshow with only the slides and the sequence that I want. All work fine, but the speed of the slideshow is much to high. Standard option to create a slideshow based on the length of the music does not work in my case because I want to choose the pictures (and the may only occur once in my slideshow). How can I slowdown the style creation proces?
Thank you!! Just have one question..I dont have templates for slideshow..where do I get the templates? I went to DZ but i could not find the templates. Many thanks!!
This video was made in 2019, but my current version of PowerDirector 365 does not have many of the slide show features you demonstrated, such as keyframes and being able to set slide length. How do I get those features?
Thanks for the video! I am trying to make my slideshow, in particular with the collage style, and the slideshow is cutting off most of the photos. I can not figure out how to get a slideshow to show the entire photos. 😓
Our Texas Family Videos Yes. At the end select “Advanced Editing” and it will add the slideshow to your timeline. Split the slideshow clip where you want to insert the video clip. Add the video close in between the two slideshow clips. Wa-la!
Your Cyblerlinks instructional videos are very good and easy to follow. My question about slideshow maker, is there a way to put text in? I want to put a personalized title. I like to use the Gallery slideshow. Can I use a personalized title instead of the slideshow starting with just Gallery in the beginning.
If you create a snap shot of a title you can use it as an image in your slideshow. You can also place a title at the beginning of the timeline and then add your slideshow after it.
After you create the slideshow bring it back into PowerDirector, add a clip to the track below, use PiP Designer to scale and place that clip where you want it over the slideshow.
@@PDU_Tutorials Would you so happen to have a video that shows me how to use Pip Designer. I am very new to this. You are the man. Love the videos i have seen so far. Very very helpful
Hi Malik. Do you know if there is a way to set it so that the duration of all photos in a slideshow is only 2 seconds by default? Currently, I can only do it by manually changing the duration of each photo from 4 seconds to 2 seconds, and with hundreds of photos, that gets a bit tedious ;)
Go to Preferences > Editing > Duration > Image Files. ruclips.net/video/l1k9RRZVZpU/видео.html Also, if you only have photos on your timeline you can select all the photos at once by pressing Ctrl + A and then clicking the duration button above the timeline and changing the duration there.
Selecting one of the duration options in the slideshow preferences changes the duration of all the photos at once. Otherwise you can change them to individually
@@PDU_Tutorials , Where is slideshow preferences? In the plugin? In the main program? In the plugin only changes 1 slide at a time. In the main program I don't know where the slide show preferences are. Thanks
#MeLikeySlideshow Is there a way to alter the transitions between images in the slideshow templets? If not, is there an easy way to use a single transition between all images in the slideshow? Thanks Maliek, for your approach to your tutorials.
Tom Gibson If you want control over the transitions you can use the Theme Designer to create a slideshow. With that feature you can modify and change the transitions. I’ll be uploading a tutorial on the Theme Designer next week.
Hello, I am trying to make an important slideshow in Powerdirector 16, and I want to make the images last longer, but I don't see the customization button. Is the customization only in powerdirector 17? Please respond asap I only have a few days.
If you are trying to watch the finished video on your pc you need to produce it first. ruclips.net/video/dFgxMwe5lRk/видео.html If you can't open a project in PowerDirector you need to contact support
🤷🏾♂So the first picture is not there and all you see is a black screen? Or, a black screen is there and then the first picture shows up? Did you check your timeline to make sure there is no space at the beginning?
I've created several slideshows using this method in PD16, but I recently upgraded my computer and had to rein.stall the software on the new computer. I must have missed something because this option is no longer there... i.e. no Slideshow option under plugins. The only options are: - Multicam Designer - Theme Designer - Action Camera Center - Express Project - Screen Recorder - Blending Effect - Video Collage Designer ... and AI Style Plugin Any idea why the Slideshow Creator disappeared or what I might have missed during the reinstallation process?
Hayati Channel The closer you get to any image the more pixels you will see. The quality of the image won’t change because the resolution isn’t changing. Seeing more pixels doesn’t decrease quality. So my answer would be no.
Hello, the new powerdirector update patch 17 made during the production of the video a you tube window opened, the inconvenience that caused me is that it greatly slows the production of the video, I have a video that lasts 22 minutes and time total to produce it is 2 hours! if you know any way to deactivate that you tube window I would be grateful, otherwise I would be forced to uninstall that update Thank you
Dayan Suarez I’m not aware of the issue you’re referring to. You may have to roll back to the previous version. You should contact CyberLink for help with this issue.
The slideshow plugin is really easy to use. The problem is that it has way too much graphics and does a poor job of displaying the images. If I make a slideshow, it's main purpose if for people to be able to see the images. Graphics are nice as long as they are secondary to the images you want to display. I would like all horizontal images to display almost full screen and any vertical images should be placed on the screen in pairs or scrolling across the screen so that they are as full screen as possible. I guess I'll have to use another product to get what I want. However, I really want to like this product.
@@PDU_Tutorials I could not really find a slideshow software that did what I wanted. I ended up using PowerDirector but to get the show like I wanted, I had to put vertical images on two timelines and then drag one image to the left and one to the right. I used color boards on the top timeline to hold the place above full screen images. All transitions went to the second timeline and the show ended up pretty good but was a big hassle to arrange 350 slides for a 30 minute show. I would like a slideshow wizard that gives more flexibility to add custom titles. What would be really nice for vertical images would be having the capability of creating a collage of as many photos as you want but have them scroll from right to left or vice-versus. The collage should be created from images that are in your already imported images so that after they are used in a collage, they show up with a check-mark so that you know they have been used. The existing collage plugin asks you to import images that you may already have in your imported images and they don't indicate that they have been used. I upgraded to PowerDirector 365 so that I could utilize all the features but after my year is up, I will cancel and go back to PowerDirector 17 since I just can't tell much difference anyway.
Spent several hours on this and could not get it to work with 150 pictures. It's the most frustrated I've been with PowerDirector. I would have spent less time creating a conventional movie.
Hey Malik how about telling me why my damn Power Director 16 started crashing after I made 5 videos. Piece of garbage. The company will not get back to me. Learning from you how to get a video made didn’t help since I can no longer make any videos.
Hello@@PDU_Tutorials I was wondering whether if you might be able to help me with figuring out how to use a certain technique that I saw being used in a slideshow? The technique involves displaying multiple photos together inside the same window within a slideshow so that the photos are interacting with each other by switching positions with one another.....
@@julianparker896 You could do that by manually creating a video clip of the pictures switching, producing it, producing a separate slideshow, then importing both the videos into the media library, placing both clips in the timeline, and inserting the clip of the pics switching into the slideshow.

Can PowerDirector 365 do photo and video morphing?
It doesn't have a particular effect to morph but you can try using some of the effects in the program to see if they fit your needs.
I have powerdirector 365. How do I get/download additional slide show styles?
Google "DirectorZone" and "PDTemplateZone". You should be able to search those sites and find some things.

After you create the slideshow bring it back into PowerDirector, add a clip to the track below, use PiP Designer to scale and place that clip where you want it over the slideshow.
