Hello! I just downloaded the free version of Videopad and I'm really confused. There are several features listed in the Help file that I can't find on any of the menus --for example Custom Resolution. It implies that you should just be able to click one of the dropdown menus and select it but I can't find it anywhere. I've tried opening a video file to see if the menus change, but that doesn't get me Custom Resolution. Is this feature only available in the paid version? If so, is there some list that tells me what's different between the paid and unpaid versions? The reason I want to try Custom Resolution before anything else is that I need to find out if Videopad will let me reduce the resolution of some video files that I've made with a Vado HD. I'm having problems with audio being out of sync, and I've learned that can be a problems with CPU power. Apparently if you reduce the resolution of your video then it's not so bad. I"m hoping to not have to go through the trouble of shutting down all processes running in background every time I edit a video. I'd rather try reducing the resolution before trying that. If Videopad doesn't do let me reduce the resolution of videos, then I need to look for other software. Thanks much! Louise

Hello! I'm tryiing to edit videos I recorded on my Vado HD. When I opened them up in Videopad I discovered the audio is way out of sync with the visuals. I went on this forum and found a discussion thread that said "go into options and tick the option on the conversions tab to use ffmpeg first." But the only tab in Options is Cache and Clips. Is that "conversions tab" only available in the paid version of the software? I've spent the last two weeks since buying the Vado, trying to find compatible editing software for it. Apparently there are some serious compatibility problems with lots of commonly used software. Then I tried Videopad, and I can open the files at least --yay! But now I've got this problem with audio out going out of sync. I REALLY don't want to pay for the full version, only to find out that I still can't use it with the Vado files.
