  1. Dear Nat, To start off with, thank you most kindly for the time you took to explain the convoluted nature of this software. With that said, however, I found some of your descriptions somewhat convoluted as well. Nonetheless, I seem to have discovered some new procedures to undertake. After getting the film into VideoPad and “adding it to sequence,” I discovered that I could still reset the “In Point” in the manner which gave me best control (instead of trying to argue with positioning the red cursor as precisely as desired), and upon entering the precise start point I could simply click on the red “In Point” flag button. I also find it rather confusing and/or idiotic to have two windows within VideoPad displaying the input. All this aside, there remains still something about VideoPad and its conversion that leave me less than satisfied, for in any work that I have performed in the editing of films (and this has included taking parts to combine them into one whole), the resulting film has a pixilated gray square quality to it and I don’t find this appreciable whatsoever. If my input is .wmv and the out is also .wmv, then why should the display quality suffer? Continuing to soldier on – Greg
  2. Hello, Nat - Thank you for taking a moment to reply. Per your request, here are the steps that I am taking: (1) Click "Add Media"; (2) Select the File Folder; (3) Select the film and wait while it adds/loads; (4) "Add item to sequence"; (5) Click on the "In Point" display in order to open the window which allows me to change the start point; (6) Click "Save Movie"; (7) In "Video Output Setup" I select "Computer/Data"; (8) I then designate the the "Save Destination" and "File Format" (.wmv); and (9) I last click "OK." I am able to tell after watching the creation window for a short time as to whether or not the edit is going as I had desired, and if it is recreating the movie from 00:00 I simply cancel the output. I just went through this procedure about 30 minutes ago, and the editing did not work as desired. All the best, Greg
  3. I thought I had posted this already, but as usual with NCH it did not appear. I am using the 2.30 free version for editing films in one of my libraries, all of which are similar in style/production, in order to shorten them all at the beginning. So far I have been successful with one film being edited correctly, but subsequent efforts have not worked at all. As I do know how to alter the "start point," I am at a loss as to understanding why it is that my subsequent editing attempts result in no change being made. Any and all decent feedback/advice is welcome.
