If a user opts to have Sound enabled with the Image to Video AI feature, they will most likely end up with something taken from either the Meta or Soundstrip background music collection. The problem is that the user has no idea what the title and artist is so therefore no proper attibution can be given. If that video is subsequently posted to YouTube, a notice of a copyright violation will give given. This bug in the AI was brought to CyberLink's attention on May 22, 2025. They worked with Soundstripe and cleared the violation but made no mention of how or why it occured nor did they mention that the program code would be fixed.

Two weeks later, CyberLink releases the June update and the new AI Feature of Auto Edit also repeats this same mistake. Background music is chosen apparently based on the style template that is part of that feature. Unfortunately most of the music tracks seem to be from the Meta collection. Meta does not want their music on YouTube but it doesn't matter as the original artist and copyright holder will file the violation with YouTube.

Is their anybody at CyberLink that thought about this before releasing the software to the public or don't they even care about what happens to the user? On my tutorial YouTube channel for PowerDirector users, "PowerDirector Made Simple" (https://www.youtube.com/@Baldy-1), I have warned users TO NOT USE ANY AI SUPPLIED MUSIC FROM CYBERLINK if they plan to post their videos on YouTube. In most cases, the users should further edit the resulting AI created video to remove any and all music tracks and substitute music that they know is copyright free or subject to a Creative Common License in which they can give proper attribution in the video notes.

CyberLink.....are you listening?
