> 3 dayThe CyberLink PowerDirector 21 Ultra & PhotoDirector 14 Ultra package is a complete photo and video editing software package that includes TONS of features for your WINDOWS based computer. Yes, this is a Windows based software package that includes the two CD installation disk set, or if you laptop or desktop does NOT have a CD ROM unit, it also includes the Digital Download instructions so you can download the software without using the disks. You will need the Registration Key Code regardless of which method you use to install the software. This key code is printed on Disk 1 of the software. I used the disks to install on my computer running Windows 11 without a hitch and it took about 15 minutes to finish the installation of all the software. I am not “unfamiliar” to photo and video editing, however I have never used PowerDirector. Following the excellent step by step directions and tutorials so far the software looks amazing! I am sure there will be a bit of a “learning curve” as there is with all new software programs however I look forward to learning and utilizing this as much as I can going forward. I do most of my current editing on my mobile devices (both iPhone and IPads) so I look forward to having my big monitor in use with this software in the future. I was able to import a bunch of my short videos and pics from my iPhone and IPad to folders on my computer for use via the software and built folders for them. As I stated, this software is jam packed with just about any editing tool you can think of and so far I am just scratching the surface of what can be done! I plan to watch all the tutorials provided and also setup my account for other info and tips from CyberLink along with the 1 year free cloud storage provided free as well!! If you are into video/picture editing from the basics to pro, this package should be able to do it all, and then some!

> 3 dayThis is very fun to use and does a really nice job of editing. My concern is that some people are saying there is a renewal fee, however, it is stated that this is a one time fee. I guess time will tell. Should I get a renewal notice I will come back and adjust the review. Other than that this package has a lot of tools and it is fairly easy to use.

Greater than one weekI have been using PowerDirector 19 for a while and wanted to upgrade since I upgraded my computer. Having photodirector as part of the bundle was a huge plus. Initially, I did the software download since my new system doesnt have an external drive. The download took way too long. The site kept disconnecting and then went incredibly slow. After I installed, the key didnt fully activate the photodirector. Some of the features didnt work even after entering the key again. I ended up using an external DVD drive to install and then everything worked as it was supposed to. I mainly used this for editing video from a gopro. The software has done everything I needed. I also started trying to edit photos since the software was available but Ill need to take some tutorials to get the most out of the features.

02-04-2025This is an awesome set of software for both photos and video and has been instrumental in helping me create the most powerful photos and videos for my real estate practice. While getting to learn it can be a challenge, the tutorial and other videos found online will show you the way to optimize all the features in this software. It is an excellent value for all that you are able to do. I am extremely happy with it!

> 3 dayIm pretty bad with learning new apps and programs. It feels sometimes like everyone else can just pick them up in an instant and suddenly use tons of advanced features, right out the gate. My husband does photoshop and that felt so daunting to me. He learned it when he had hours of wait time during a deployment, but I dont have that kind of time where Im forced to sit and wait for hours and need something to fill my time. Ive always wanted to do photo editing, but most of the software is just beyond my level. And it feels like most expect me to learn so much right away just to do something so simple. I installed this and it took forever. My computer is about 6 years old and full of junk, so that might have something to do with it. It has Windows 11 and is a 64 bit, but not a huge amount of ram. The download took no time at all. But installation? Over an hour for me. Once installed, I hopped into Power Director, read the little pop ups, and got to work. Using the helpful snip tool, as I wanted to edit some videos that I had for a slideshow, I was able to have my clips ready to go in maybe a minute each, which includes publishing and saving. I spent more time searching for clips than I did the actually editing process. All I did was snip the clips out, nothing else, then save them, and add them into my slideshow. I havent tried any of the more advanced features, because I havent needed them yet. For editing longer videos down, this thing is a breeze. Not only can I snip out just the parts that I want, I can edit the order of them as I work, add in gaps of time for transitions, or different styles of transition, and then I can publish it as a continuous stream. So no more adding in one video clip, then adding another, then adding another, and continuously hitting the spacebar in PowerPoint during presentations to get my series of clips to work. Just one smooth video with transitions that I upload into a single slide. It sounds so basic, but I searched high and low for a simple video editor that wouldnt break the bank, that would let me just cut out clips and join them together into one video, and couldnt find a thing that would work for me. This worked perfectly. My only, single complaint is that I was working with some dual audio clips. They had foreign language and English audio attached to the video. I was able to highlight the audio track and change it to English. However, it would only save in the foreign language. I didnt have time to figure it out. I dont know how to unlock the two audio tracks from each other, so I couldnt use all the clips that I made, because I needed the English tracks to make a point for my slideshow. So, today Ill be figuring all that out, hopefully, and will update with how it went. So far, this program has been easy for me to use and thats saying a lot. I think this is probably an intro program to folks interested in this kind of thing. I think that any age could use this program. Its been really helpful for my very basic needs and actually has me interested in trying some new stuff, because it doesnt seem daunting at all using this program. Very happy with this. I havent used tech support. However, when I googled a question about the program, I found 2 support forums on their website that had the answers that I needed. So thats really cool! So far, so good. Ill definitely be making more videos with this!

> 3 dayIve used CyberLinks software for years, and when you need these features, it is the tool to use. It has just the right blend of easy to use the first time with enough features that you actually use that work great. Highly recommended.
