Question

strong flicker

I kindly ask for suggestions to solve the problem of a strong flicker during the development and reproduction of paning-zoom of photographs treated with version 19 of Element, this did not happen to me with the previous version (15) operating on the same PC (Dell Workstation 3620: Xeon E3-1245 processor, 16GB, Windows 10 (1909), AMD Radeon-pro wx 5100 graphics card, 5GB, 160GB / sec, 256 bit).
The problem disappears in the corresponding MP4 movies.
Thanks for your attention

Thanks for the advices.
Unfortunately they have not been conclusive. To give a complete idea, now in Video Editor the reproduction of the photographs is correct, the reproduction of the photographs with a dynamic zoom - paning - have striped flicker with discontinuous reproduction speed. Step-by-step movements appear in exported files viewed with QuickTime, while if reproduced with the Microsoft software of the Win 10 package they appear correct.
I did the following: I installed the latest version of ‘AMD Settings’ software after uninstalling programs with possible interference such as Elements 15, itune, Quick time.
I can say that the troubles are now partially reduced but not resolved.
Now I have noticed that

* Organizer -> ctrl K -> general -> Playback box does not stay active : not correct
* Photo editor -> ctrl K -> performance -> recognizes ATI AMD FirePro W5100: correct
* Video Editor -> ctrl K -> general -> use hardware accelerator (intel HD Graphics 2000 and later) for rendering ... 'active' : not correct?
* Video Editor: when I load an existing project still in progress, an error message 'file type not supported or required codec not installed' appears. Ignoring it however loads the project: what does it mean?
Thanks for Your help

Re: strong flicker


The slideshow feature has totally changed between versions 15 and 19. Since it appears that you are only experiencing a problem with the preview and not the rendered file, I would suggest making sure your graphics card driver is updated.



Also, in the Organizer's Preferences dialog (Ctrl+K), make sure that the Use Graphics Processor for Video Playback box is checked. For some reason, the default seems to be unchecked.
