I'm trying to test the free version of VideoPad to see if I can use it to output mp4 movies, which I then want to play in an HTML5 video player on my web site. For my test: 1) For comparison, I downloaded an existing mp4 video from YouTube. File size: 4.4 MB (!). 2) I created a quick video in VideoPad and used Save Movie to output it in mp4 format. File size: 88 KB. 3) I coded both movies into a web page (<video> tag). When I open the web page: 1) The (much bigger) existing movie from YouTube displays with the starting frame visible and immediately starts when I click the play button. 2) The small movie created in VideoPad is black, no starting frame visible. When I click play, it remains black until the entire movie has played once. When it ends the starting frame finally displays and its ready to play. Note: I have tried many combinations in the Save Movie dialog (which is confusing) with the same results. I will appreciate greatly any thoughts or suggestions. jake905
