I thought I had uploaded the entire folder as it took almost 20 minutes to place it on Google Drive. My VideoPad is V. 8.56.

That's only the VPJ control file. We need the entire FOLDER, as described above. It will contain all the source files as well. What version of VP?

Borate, Thank you for your reply. Here is the link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1unBdX9cx8PbdW2NcXLW6mekgclecUov8/view?usp=sharing I look forward to hearing from you. Dalmatprod

Tough to visualize what's going on, but it obviously isn't right. What version of Videopad is being used? As you describe it, the single-track timeline should look something like this. Video - title text - video - credit text. Is that what you see? Take a few minutes to upload your project so someone can take a look. This is easy and can be private. Just follow these four steps... 1. With your project on the timeline, click on MENU at the top-left. Click FILE|BACK UP PROJECT FILES TO FOLDER. Choose a folder and SELECT FOLDER. 2. Locate the saved, numbered folder

After loading my videos onto the VP editor, I created two Texts cards, as I always do. However, for these two videos, I placed the Title Card for the program between a special video I recorded and the video file of the podcast, followed by a single "CREDITS" card. I used the vertical red marker to move over both areas and the cards were fine. When I then hit the "HOME" button and hit the "PLAY" arrow, the video displays both cards at the very start of the video! How do I remove them from the start, but keep each one in its assigned position? Thank you! Dalmatprod

I just started from scratch and the problem went away so it must've been a fluke in my install. Everything seems be working fine now.

Hi, I found the issue. SoundTap MUST be in the Applications folder and NOT in a sub-folder in the Applications folder. I had my copy in an NCH Software folder inside Applications. Problem Solved!

Could someone please advise me, When using the sound Audio converter to convert a DRM protected music file from WMA, file format on a USB key to an MP3 format on a MacBook Pro, does this work with the Audio File Converter? I would like to know before downloading or investing in this app. Thanks

Be sure that your video drivers and Direct-X are up to date. https://www.nch.com.au/kb/10265.html v8.84 here. Pop up appears on mouseover... Record_2020_10_01_10_18_42_356.mp4https://www.nch.com.au/kb/10265.htm

Hi B No popup here with V8.84 Nor with right click; left click or Mouse over. (Block changes colour though) ?Version Variation...Var setting?? Nat

I am trying to create some simply text macros. But after inserting I get an Balloon error stating Invalid Format Quotes must be in pairs. I do have only the one pair of quotes being used, but this is a longer than normal macro, so not sure of the issue and could find nothing in the help that mentions anything of this nature. TIA, Art Moler

Sorry....thanks Fred 28 I took your advice and sent off a request to the Administrators.. that was what generated the reply above. Cheers Bonsai Barry

Hi folks, Photostage don't seem to be that interested. I have tried to save the programme as MP$ with no success. Then I tried to get another NCH programme called Prism which seems to be designed to do just that. It isn't available in the UK. I'm pleased with my first attempt and can see its potential but I think I'll start looking for an alternative.

Note the second Value # in the pop up when mousing over a keyframe. File suggestions by clicking the chevron at the top-right of the VP window.

Intel I7 late generation or comparable. NVidia 1060 or above. In the future expect VP to better utilize GPU for effects. A knowledgeable builder can be especially helpful in choosing appropriate, quality hardware for your 'sweet spot.' No need to break the bank. Hardware recommendations for the more complex and costly NLEs you mention apply to VP and editing in general.

Thanks for the response. I'm glad I can control the time stamp with more precision than dragging, though your solution wasn't apparent from the GUI. It would be nice if the precision control was more apparent. As a future update, possibly right clicking on the keyframe could allow the time stamp to be set, or even clicking the keyframe could bring up a number input option on the GUI somewhere. Thanks

Yes I've seen this website and many others. I will review again to understand more. Is there a direction you can point me in for at least the CPU and GPU? I'm not Gaming at all. I've read too many controversy articles mention too many diffrences between software for video editing. Is VP both GPU and CPU INTENSIVE? Am I looking for Single core performance? All the builds and parts are very similar but none explain allot about VP. Just premiere and davinci mostly.

And of course. Save Project File AS routinely, giving it a unique # or name, so as not to overwrite prior saves. Using Save Project Files (no AS) will overwrite. Then clicking the VPJ will restore a project to the state it was in when saved.😄.

There's no one answer, but as video editing is resource intensive a game-class PC is often recommended. Check this out and search the WEB for similar articles. Consider a custom build, by a qualified high-end shop. You may see a speed improvement immediately. And when Videopad 64-bit arrives (no target date), handling of complex projects, huge files and ultra-high resolutions will be enhanced, to take even better advantage of your new hardware.

OK, I guess I'll answer my own question. The VideoPad Project (.vpj) file is essentially a script, editable in a text editor. It just isn't formatted to make it easy to use as a script lacking field identifiers and with the entire project including clips, effects, audio, subtitles all in one file. The vpj file has a checksum value included in the file as a text element at the very end. If you edit the file, obviously the checksum will fail when opening in VideoPad and VideoPad will notify you that the file may be corrupt and give you the option to proceed anyway, which you can do with no h

i want to know how to clear every entry that is payment and invoice.

Hi again, Now that I have understood how the cache works, editing is Excellent. I have above 7 for the VP versions and will upgrade Every time since This VP works great. Just a few questions... I have a very old PC and it's due for an upgrade. I want to base the PC upgrade around Videopad needs. I have no budget, I just want to get the most compatible parts to fully use Videopad. My editing varies from the lowest end to whatever Videopad can handle in high end. So I'm looking for the best sweetspot Configuration for maximum speed on videopad. I just don't want t

Hi So I have a hdmi to usb video capture device that I am attempting to use to play consoles on my pc setup, Debut is so far that only software that can take the video feed from the console with minimal input lag. So what I am doing now is playing after setting the capture device as a webcam in Debut and playing in full screen - unfortunately when doing this you get on screen controls at the bottom of the screen and borders around the sides of the screen - is it possible to disable the on screen controls that show up when viewing full screen?

Thanks for the suggestions, but I may be switching to Premiere despite the much higher cost. I downloaded it and played with it for a couple hours this evening. It seems to handle the big files without a hiccup, no caching time. And there's an automated multi-camera sequence function that will automatically sync two or more clips according to the audio track waveforms. Then one can just play the sequence and press control 1, 2, 3, etc. to switch between the video tracks wherever one wants. No splitting, transparency effect, deleting bits of the tracks, or any of that. If I can climb the learni
