Freeze Frame Effect
Select a video clip on the timeline and then click the
Freeze Frame
button to
instantly create a freeze frame effect. CyberLink PowerDirector takes a snapshot of
the current frame of video and then inserts it into the timeline, along with a video
effect and title template, creating a freeze frame effect. Edit the inserted photo
and effects to your specification to ensure the freeze frame effect fits your
creation.
You can choose to not have CyberLink PowerDirector insert the effects by
deselecting the option in preferences. See "Editing Preferences" on page 33 for
more information.
Time Info
When a RichVideo video clip or an EXIF image is added to the timeline, the
Time
Info
button is enabled. Click the
Time Info
button to enable the date caption or
time code that was captured from the original camcorder or digital camera. You
may also add a text remark to your video or image if required.
Setting Video Clip Interlacing Format
All video clips have an interlacing (TV) format, which specifies how frames are
displayed. Using video clips with conflicting (or incorrect) TV formats can result in
degraded video quality in your final production.
Before you produce your video, set all of the video clips to the same format. While
CyberLink PowerDirector can normally detect and suggest the correct format,
some interlaced video (such as a video with very little motion) may be misjudged
as a progressive video.
CyberLink PowerDirector automatically produces interlaced video for DVD, SVCD
and DV-AVI. Only change this setting if you are sure that CyberLink PowerDirector
has wrongly set the format.
