HDR Video Export
Ashley Williams
Hi,
I create videos in Powerdirector and upload them to my Youtube channel. I recently bought a new DSLR camera, which is pretty expensive and capable of creating better quality video than the old Sony camera I was using.
Two of the features that this camera has that my last camera didn't have is 4K video and also HDR video. I know that Powerdirector can output video in 4K quality, but I don't think it can handle HDR export. So please consider adding this feature in an upcoming release. I notice some other similar video editors have it, but I'd like to stick with Powerdirector.
Thanks
Ash

Ash,
a video is a collection of photos put together, A.K.A "motion picture".
4k refers to the quality of the entire video produced, where as HDR is the quality of each frame/picture/still/etc.
When clicking on a clip, and the blue button that says "edit" appears, click on it. In the video folder, click on the subfolder named "color". from there, you can adjust the "HDR effect" of that clip, and if you want it applied to all, you can click "apply to all", or apply each one individually.
In conclusion, you can't "Export" HDR quality if you don't have any HDR effects, also because this isn't an option. Again, HDR is not the quality it can be exported in for uploading purposes, but the quality of the clips themselves.
Hope this helps!

Ash, remember that a DSLR camera is primarily intended for taking photos and not filming.

Koen Wagenaar Hi,
Yeah, I thought the same thing, but then my friend who works "in the industry" (filming commerials and stuff) told me how good the video quality is in the latest DSLR cameras. I needed a new camera anyway, so looked at the Canon eOS and am really impressed with the results. Just hope Powerdirector can update so I can get the most out of my camera.

Yep, on some of videos I recorded in HDR, I would also like to keep it in HDR color after edited and exported in pd :)
