PowerProducer Projects
CyberLink PowerProducer saves projects as a .PPP file. This project
file is the collection of all of your movie content, your special effects,
and your settings, but is not the final production. This file must be
rendered (compiled, or created) from its component parts in order to
create the final production, much like a batter must be baked to make
a cake out of eggs, flour, and milk.
Whatever changes you make to your video clips, audio files, or
photos in CyberLink PowerProducer does not affect your original
media. Since your settings are all saved in the project file, you can
trim, edit, or delete clips in PowerProducer, but still keep your
original files on your hard drive, untouched. So let yourself get
creative! If you end up changing things too drastically, you can
always start over.
You can use the standard Windows buttons to create a new
PowerProducer project file, as well as open or save existing files. The
buttons for these tasks are located at the top of the page under most
