1) I found this 6.01 portable version :
https://mega.nz/file/nHgRwYyB#hQlM27QMVoXBUtFs95DZUtQb0NhrQuVcABOPSCtkytMDon't know if it's still WinXP compatible . Includes a ffmpeg23.exe file (09.03.2018) .
2) I found ffmpeg19.exe from 2015:

As I mentioned in a previous topic , I do something more time saving:
1) Before starting editing , I start stabilizing all videos with a stand alone stabilizer (i prefer ffmpeg its a gnu , free) . Stabilized files get a new name / folder. I prefer ffmpeg than the build in deshaker . I prefer ffmpeg even over Mercalli 4 . For some reason Videopad use pretty old version of Deshake (2.4) . FFmpeg have less borders and better results from both of them (Deshaker 2.4 / Mercalli 4) .
2) At the same time or later or next day or whenever I want I start editing the whole project .
3) If I chose to replace some sections with stabilized ones , I isolate them in a separate clip , and I chose 'Replace Clip File' and I replace them whith the stabilized ones. If the stabilized files are not ready yet I save the project and continue replacing files later or tomorrow ...
4) (Optionally) FFmpeg batch files can be structured like a watchfolder so they can be run in a separate machine in my LAN , so I got 0% CPU consumption in my PC during stabilization (when they run from another PC) .
Here are some batch script I use:
@ECHO OFF CLS MD Videos for %%a in (videos\*.*) do ( DEL transforms.trf ffmpeg -i "%%a" -vf vidstabdetect -f null - ffmpeg -i "%%a" -vf vidstabtransform=smoothing=50:crop=keep:invert=0:relative=0:zoom=0:optzoom=2:zoomspeed=0.2:interpol=bilinear:tripod=0 -map 0 -c:v libx264 -preset fast -crf 9 -c:a aac -b:a 192k "videos\%%~na-DONE.mp4" DEL transforms.trf ) echo echo echo "------>>>>>>>>>> J O B I S N O W C O M P L E T E <<<<<<<<<<------" echo PAUSE EXITMore:

The above procedure made on an project without unloading / reloading it .

7.xx versions up to now (7.30) have the followig behaviour:
1)
I load some project and try to make my first export .
Export -> Video File ->
Preset: Custom
File Format -> Pencil symbol -> H265 / "High Quality / Larger Filesize" / Audio: 192 kbps
=> OK
=> Create2)
Now lets make another encoding ...
Export -> Video File -> ...
We notice that Preset display 'Custom" , but VP didn't saved previous settings (H264 / Default Quality ).Now if I drop down 'Custom' and choose 'Custom' again (!) .
My favourite settings will now be restored (H265 / "High Quality / Larger Filesize" / Audio: 192 kbps)Maybe this is the reason for many people who can't make expected exports .
-
There is no answer so long .
So Videopad will fix or brake this feature ? (!)

The original DV file is avi 5.5GB (lets say A.avi) .
I isolate a small portion of 5 secs using AviDemux (lets say B.avi) .
B.avi is interlaced again .
For some peculiar reason 6.21 succeeded to export deinterlaced both A.avi and B.avi ,
Using 7.24 export file A.avi is interlaced but B.avi is OK deinterlaced .
The problem is I can't sent A.avi . The small sample B.avi is succsesfully exported using 7.24 .
-
7.24 does not yet solves the DV tapes deinterlacing issue reported @ 7.11
Video w 6.31
Video w 7.24
Using 7.24 video preview is OK (deinterlaced) but when exporting it , it still has interlace .
I reported once more today.
So I stick to 6.31 for one more reason .

1) Before inserting the clip into timeline , rotate it 180 degrees .
2) Insert this clip into timeline . Preview looks OK .
3) Split the clip .
4) The B part of the clip is not rotated but the 180 deg. rotation effect is enabled on this clip .
So I go back to 6.31 ... again ...

So I never wait for stabilization .

Thanks. It seems to work. Anyway, i hope the original filter will return. But thanks!
Are you sure that you manage to use vdf plugins ?.
As I reported I can't use vdf plugins from all 6.xx - 7.xx versions
Which version do you use ?Concerning Noise Reduction , I assume that is was removed due to very very low proccess time .
I downgraded 6.31 only to test it but it was terribly slow.Ragards Mike .

Even if I try to test your recomended vdf plugins from:
https://www.nchsoftware.com/videopad/free-plugins.htmlLet's say MSU Old Cinema 2.0
The plugin dialog opens but finally there is no effect on my video:

Using MediaInfo I found that "Default Quality" is CRF=28 and "High Quality" is CRF=24 .
However x265 version is 1.8 and this is extremely old (10.08.2016) , currnent is 3.1 (18.06.2019) .
-
Concernig the bug report I already did this .
Regarding 265 , when choosing .AVI there is not h265 option . After intalling x265vfw_x86_v300_x265b169_8bit_20190226.exe I could choose it .
However the question is how to disable the limitation of a wrong size estimation .
-
mp4 works good .
I try to make .avi in order to use the external vfw265 codec (internal h265 does not have so many options)
I use 6.32 (the latest 6.xx version) . All 7.xx versions does not deinterlace OK my DV files (as I previously reported)
-
Export to AVI estimates wrong file size and cannot disable file size limitation .
40 minutes avi as H264 or H265 makes about 500-600MB video .
However when switch to avi and put all appropriate settings VP estimates 40GB output and does not allow to proceed .
-
Up to version 6.32 , my old files captured from my previous DV camera managed preety well (without having to apply any deinterlace filter) .
Version 7.10 can't handle deinterlacing out-of-the-box so good .

Hello ,
When I try to encode h265 , "Default Quality" and "High Quality" templates works preety well all times .
So what is the equivelant "Quality (Rate facrtor)" and "Encoding Speed" you use for them ?
Is it so ? (are you are using a constant quality procedure ?) Or there is something else ?
Regards
Mike

I found that the only way is to downgrade . Version 4.22 or lower does not start loseless .

Hello
When I try to encode from h264 .mp4 to h265 , prism always starts a loseless encoding process .
How do I disable this ;

It's true . There's no problem when I try it on another PC .
Thank you all for your prompt reply .

trhaynes just wants to apply an A/B transition together with audio cross fade (without all these painfull processes described above) .
VP does not support that .
So simple . So true .

Solved: After a re-format (Win7 x64) both problematic cases seems to work ok.
However preview rendering time still takes years (compared with 3.5x and other software).
Thanks

That's a 2 year bug (as I can see from previous reports last good working version was 3.54 - 8/7/14 ) .
Case 1:
Took a 1080p mp4 video from youtube .
- Make a Clip A with let say time 00:20 - 00:30 .
- Copy / paste it to Clip B & C .
- Reversed Clip B
-> Preview cache never finished (cpu 100% always with no progress over 10 min) .
-> Deleting Clip A from timeline, deletes B & C. No clip exists in timeline but theres a clip existing in storyboard !.
The case Repeated to another PC , same result .
I thought that something was going wrong with the specific file . So I made another test.
Case2:
Took a 720p video from Samsung smartphone
- Make a Clip A with let say time 00:20 - 00:30 .
- Copy / paste it to Clip B & C .
- Reversed Clip B
-> Took ages to finish preview (compared with other software).
-> Clip B lost (again) start and end points .
.
Same cases worked great with a 3.51 . Took some seconds to preview the reverse video .
Am I the only guy reversing videos ?
