  1. Hi; How to you detatch a sound clip from a video clip segment? I have an old project done up in VP 2.05 on my machine, which is an old Dell Vostro running Windows XP. I am trying to substitute the video clips in the old vpj file with new video and simply swap them into the project with all the old audio intact the same as it was....because all I need is to replace the video. Problem is, seemingly at random, some of the sound clips are stuck onto some of the video segments, and when I move or delete the video segments, the sound clips move or delete with them, and there seems to be nothing I can do about it. I have dozens of small sound segments carefully placed along the time stream audio tracks and I don't want to have to completely reconstruct the audio flow from scratch. None of them were part of the imported video clips, but for some reason, some of the sound clips have attached themselves to video, and now it's a major PITA to remove the old video clips and replace them with the new. I have googled for the answer but there doesn't seem to be any help, and the few instructions I've found don't work. I have found a drop menu under Edit-->Sound--> that says "Unlink Sound Clip", but clicking it does nothing, it doesn't seem to activate no matter how I try to select the sound clip, or video clip associated with it. Also, How did those clips become attached anyway?.... I never did that.... Thank You,
  2. What you show isn't there in my version. Must be a new feature. I have something called a Clip List. If I right click anything in my Clip List; I get the following choices; - Add Item(s) to Sequence - Remove items - Add file(s) - Stabilize Video(s) - Rename item - File details All of those choices leave me with the same problem....
  3. Thank You; Top item isn't the issue as it is not the native audio with the clip....and when I try to right click on any of the audios below it, the only choices are; - Remove selected clip(s) - Move to track -> (then it lists all avail audio tracks) - Fade in - Fade out - Remove fade points - Adjust clip volume Second item....there isn't this "lock" you speak of on the left.... Can't find it. Clip Bin???? Where's that?
  4. How to swap in/update a video clip in VIDEOPAD? I'm making a video using VideoPad. It is an extensive and busy scene, requiring many video clips and sound clips. There are dozens of sound clips scattered on multiple sound tracks. I recently updated a video clip, and now want to insert it into the video track of my VideoPad file....problem is - whenever I try to delete the old clip from the video track to swap in the new one in it's place, it also deletes ALL of those many, carefully placed, sound clips that are underneath it on the sound tracks below it. I have farted around with this thing for hours and I can't find a way to swap in the updated video clip without it destroying the placement of all of those sound clips below it - they seem attached to it, and there is no way to separate them from that damned video clip, and simply moving them out from under it destroys all of the careful timing and placement I have already done with them. Deleting the video clip also deletes all the sound clips and then I have to start all over with them again. I have tried everything I can think of; --- I have tried saving a new version of the video clip and then opening the VPJ..... --- Going into the VideoPad cache and deleting all of the files in there and then reloading it. --- Deleting the original clip from the clip list and resaving the VPJ file, both under original name and under a new name.... I then open either one, use "add media" to re-introduce the new clip again, yet it STILL seems to keep a copy of the old video clip in spite of me destroying every trace of any copy I have of it on my hard drive. I completely clean out all the raw files and everything. I completely emptied the folder until one day the folder itself completely dissappeared. --- I have turned off the "use cache" feature, and deleted the cache folder before doing all of the above all over again. The video clip's IN Points and OUT points seem permanently attached to all my sound clips and I can't seem to separate them from the parameters of that old video clip. This is a STUPID problem to have and seems like a rediculous oversight for a video editing software program to saddle it's users with. How can I unlink my sound clips from the video clip above it? I have version 2.05 The computer I use this version on is not hooked to the internet, thus I have no internet help link. Thank You; Frustrated.....
