Pinnacle have released a new patch today for PS18. This one has a lot of fixes!

Just great!

Now if I can only get PS18 to install I might be able to use it. 

How nice to have SmartSound back again..... Like finding that comfortable old pair of slippers!

Gives me the incentive to move on again - Thanks to Corel for sorting quickly!

Can we install this patch without the prevous one or do we need to install the first one too.

Doesn't matter.

Any released patch can be installed on any previously released build.

So far released builds are 225, 312 and now 444.

It seems they have now changed the EXPORT settings.

XAVC S has only one setting for 192 x 1080 which locks the resolution at 20mbps. Previously we had a custom adjustment so as to get better resolution. This would be a serious & major problem to me.  

You're right.

Regression confirmed and already escalated to Pinnacle.

Even worse, I have just tried to export and make a XAVC file and shock horror, it does not work, the file is not known where as previously is worked great.

A different problem for the straight MP4 files, they are so small.

Somebody has definitely boobed with the whole export part. 

Smartsound now added but does not work. Have you seen this issue ?

No - works here. Read some of the Smartsounds specific threads to learn what you need to do to get it working.

Perhaps I'm missing something here but if I click on

 I get to the page describing the patch but I see no link to download it.

 What am I doing wrong?

Look at the BOTTOM of the first column... see Download  right next to Release Date: February 13, 2015

Thank you.

Now I feel something of an idiot; but I'll know next time.

Best regards

No problem. Sometimes, it is hard to "see".  That's why I wear these....

They certainly could make it a little clearer.
