Upload one of the files, or a portion thereof, that does not render at 16:9 correctly and someone will check it out.
Note in the latest VP versions that DVD movie export offers the choice of either 4:3 or 16:9 aspect ratios.
-
There are two transition modes, GENERATE FREEZE FRAMES and OVERLAP.
If audio/video are not linked, then the OVERLAP mode could throw them out of sync.
Look under OPTIONS|EDITING and set the mode to FREEZE or to ASK. When it does, specify freeze.

In the upload dialog box is there a "file type" field? Does it have a chevron to click that drops down the types to be assessed - with one for videos that include mp4?
Does your file meet Instagram's specs?
- H.264 Codec.
- AAC Audio.
- 3 500 kbps bitrate for video.
- Frame rate of 30 fps (frames per second)
- Maximum file size of 15 mb.
- Video must be a maximum of 60 seconds.
- Maximum video width is 1080 px (pixels) wide.

Check the export resolution, where it's often best to stick with AUTO MATCH. Test other settings as well.
If you upload the project and link it here someone will take a look. Here's how... http://nch.invisionzone.com/topic/23659-tips-for-getting-help-on-this-forum/

IMO it's not possible to have a zero-duration image. Something is amiss here. There are a number of ways to change image length...
1. In the bin (top-left), click the image. Under the preview window, click the box that lists the duration and type in a new length.
2. On the timeline. right-click the clip and click CHANGE DURATION. Then do the same as #1.
3. Place the pointer on the in or out boundary of the clip until a bracket appears, hold down the left mouse button and drag left or right.
If an image's duration still won't budge, upload that image to a server and link it here. Someone will check it out.

Tested here...
1. Exported the file as is
2. Chopped out a segment, deleted (ripple)
3. Chopped out two segments, deleted (ripple)
All exported as lossless without a hitch, using VP 7.04
-
Censor-blurred a fifteen-second video, testing each of the three modes and various slider settings. Added synthesized text for their duration.
No popping heard. Try the latest VP version and report back.

No need to load beta 7.04.
Assuming you downloaded the corrected audio from https://1drv.ms/u/s!AmKCN6jvYsvCkiyRhKhjqUytclY4
it was tweaked via the compression method mentioned earlier (not the FX route). Utilize it on future projects.
See how it sounds, and works for you.
-
<Shift> is pressed only while selecting, but not when FX is clicked. Thereafter, the audio or video effect item is accessed.

Click FX on C1 This opens the effects window but now C2 and C3 now go blue so only C1 remains selected and therefore Apply to all does not work.
That's not the case here with 7.04 Nat. After using <shift> to select individual clips, clicking on FX does not deselect them and the APPLY TO ALL action is available.

I have just found that using SHIFT to keep the clips selected when choosing an effect inactivates the Apply to selected clips tabs.
Not seeing that behavior, Nat. Whether it's <ctrl-A> for all, <shift> (selecting first) <shift> (selecting last) or individual clip <ctrl> clicks, APPLY TO ALL is enabled here.
-
There's no substitute for good mic technique, obviously, but use of the compression procedure mentioned earlier should help when that hasn't been the case.

This means that in the context of this post, splitting out the loud and soft areas of the soundrack means that even though you would appear to have made numerous clips they cannot all have an effect added at the same time as the tab will not be available.
Create a template and name it "amp."
Split a clip, select all parts, group them, then click the AUDIO tab, choose AUDIO EFFECT and click on "amp." The template should be applied to all parts of the split clip. Was here.

Upload the file to a server - Google Drive, MS OneDrive or the like - and post a link to it here. Someone will check it out.

Did Borate's method for doing the same thing work for you? Here the 5th "Append to chain" tab was not highlighted and therefore inactive.
Weirdness.
Three clips on the timeline here - all selected. Clicked the audio FX button, then the AMPLIFY effect. Adjusted volume to 50%. Clicked the 5th (append) icon, which was active.
All clips were at 50%. ??

Why is it that if I wanted to establish a new Fx point I need to be in Sequence Mode? Then after selecting Amplify and to set Keyframe I need to be in Clip mode?
Keyframes can be plotted in either mode. If you want to see both CLIP and SEQUENCE, click the View menu and choose Show Dual Previews.
QuoteWouldn't be nice if I could Copy and Paste the entire Q&A clip and have VP level out all the valleys on the Q's
Actually, there may be a way. Add the COMPRESSOR effect. Set the threshold to -40 and the ratio to 6 as a test and see what that does. Fiddle with those values for best result.

And you did export it as a BR Movie?
-
If you can tolerate a standard DVD (not BluRay), then the old DVD Shrink utility may do the job for you. It's free. If payment is asked, it's a fake.
-
Here's the workaround for using amplify and some other effects on more than a single clip at once...
1. Select the clips to which the effect will be applied.
2. Click FX in one of the clips or AUDIO EFFECTS on the toolbar
3. Choose AMPLIFY and move the slider to the desired volume
4. Click the 5th button from the left on the toolbar whose popup reads "Append to chain."
If the selected clips' volume later needs to be adjusted, make the change with the slider, then click the 4th button, "Replace in chain."
-
Amplification for each block can be adjusted by dragging its handles (squares) up (louder) or down (softer), as described by Nat, above.
To remove a split on the timeline, place the pointer at the split point and right-click. In most cases there is an UNsplit choice.
To delete an effect, open the effects window. Click the white X that's to the right of the name of the specific effect.
-
If you burned as a MOVIE, the DVD should have been playable on a standalone device (as well as the PC).
Try Express Burn.
-
On Win 10, type SYSTEM into the search box (left of the taskbar, or click on the search icon there). <enter>
You can drag the video or audio track to the right, after UNlinking them with the right-click menu item, in order to achieve dead sync. Takes a little work, but should succeed.
-
The constant audio bit rate isn't the quality issue, but the video conversions no doubt are. Quality was intentionally low to limit file size.
Try this: Load the conversion into VP, UNlink audio from video, then replace the video from the conversion with your original. You can mute of delete its audio track.
Sync 'em up and see if they stay that way.
Aspect ratio can be changed in VP, using the SCALE tool and unchecking the "maintain aspect ratio" box. The Mp4 you submitted was 720 x 576 and, yes, it wasn't quite right.
As for converting VOB files (on the DVD), see if NCH Prism can do anything for you. There's also this utility.
New version 7.05 broke text scrolling!

Confirmed and reported.
Until it's fixed, animate the action. Use the position or motion effect.
