Request feature to archive slideshow media
R
Ralph Wood
I was a long-time user of Proshow Producer to create slideshows. A feature that I really appreciated was "collecting" the media used in the slideshow and storing those components on my computer for archiving purposes. I am also a PowerDirector 365 user and have recently created four slideshows for a summer collegiate baseball team. Unfortunately, Cyberlink has not developed the means to export the media files in a similar way. This would be a welcomed feature.

If I understand you correctly, would the Pack Project command do what you require?
File>Pack Project materials
Each of your slideshows could be Packed and only the media used in the project and the slideshow template will be copied to a location of your choice. This also strips the file locations from being hard coded, to being relatively coded, within the .pds file, thus allowing the project to be opened on another computer running PDR.

Thanks Adrian!!! "Pack Project Materials" is exactly what I was looking for! After using the "Remove all unused content" feature I successfully archived all of the media files of my four projects for safekeeping in a designated folder on my PC. I see where there is also an option to Pack project materials and upload to Cyberlink's cloud... but I'm not interested in that.
Thanks again...greatly appreciated!
