The BluRay plugin is for creating the chapters, menus, etc and burning that to a disk, etc. It sounds like you don't need that and could just export your project video and audio in a suitable format (MTS maybe?) and import that into DVD architect.   Andy   

I don't believe adding the extensions to Windows 10 does anything for Pinnacle. At least I have HEIF Image Extensions, HEVC video extensions from devices manager and HEIC Image Viewer - Support Converter installed and if I drag a .heic file to the library it tries to load it and gives an error.   Andy 

HEIC files are not a supported photo format, you can to convert to JPG or something else first; the list is on this page:https://www.pinnaclesys.com/en/pages/studio/ultimate/?utm_source=ult_en&utm_medium=ult_ab&utm_campaign=ult_b_t3_12_18#system-requirements   Yes, I agree they should be included but Windows 10 doesn't support them ...

Oh I didn't even notice that button before. Probably because, as you point out, it doesn't do anything. I don't even think it's in the user guide.  Andy  

I'm not sure which button you mean but File/New/Movie from the menu bar will create a new movie project.   Andy 

Irwin:Thank you saby.  Unfortunately I don't speak French.  I'll try to translate and hopefully it will be helpful.  Merci.   You can ignore the French, it's just his signature, it doesn't say anything about your problem.   Andy 

By vanish, do you mean you can't find them on disk? If you are in the main Edit window and select Library, the second item down is ''Projects'' and should show your projects broken down by location. Do they show up there?  

The question asked was whether the sample project works?  

It requires PS 23 Ultimate. You can upgrade from the more basic versions within the program if you want.   Andy 

It should say something like:   Pinnacle Studio Ultimate Version 23.1.1.242
