That's Videopad's target market, in my opinion. You could spend more in one month for a high-ender's subscription than to license a copy of VP. Updates are free for up to six months, as I recollect. Thereafter, the latest version will exact a price, but your licensed copy will continue to fully function.

In the export window click the file format field, click the FILESIZE link. Lots of choices there. In the resolution field, AUTO MATCH is a good choice, generally. Experiment.

Ran five tests with 6.30, with two different video overlay clips, and none had the issue. Same result whether the file was split out or shortened by dragging its end left. However, on first preview, after deleting the end of the overlays, the last scene of the overlay froze. Played again, from the top, the overlay ended at the point it was trimmed.

No automatic way. But what you might do is... Place the clips contiguously on the timeline. Expand the timeline horizontally using the slider at the right-bottom of the window, so you can see the duplication clearly. SPLIT out the unwanted portions; they become new clips. (Switch to Storyboard mode, to display individual clips.) Press the DEL key or right-click those clips and CUT or DELETE|RIPPLE.

Shop carefully for a product suitable to your needs. Are you making theatrical productions? Commercial editors cost big $$$, often on a subscription basis, and the learning curve can be steep.

Unable to pin down the problem; maybe the app doesn't like Readiwip.😉 To work around it, the project was divided into two sequences at 2:30, then those sequences were combined in sequence 3 and exported at 1920 X 1080 - 45fps. In the future, converting files that are higher than HD res to 1920 X 1080 might help to expedite editing. Quality loss should be negligible.

License VP and you won't have to worry about disabled features. 50% off until the end of the month. https://secure.nch.com.au/cgi-bin/register.exe?software=videopad

UNinstall, then install this version and see if some export options are available.

Check this out. You already have the capture device.

Don't quote me, but just from memory, recall that mpg, avi and asf were still active. The avi wrapper offers various encoding choices. The trial period is at least 14 days. Consider taking advantage of a 50% discount if you license before the end of the month.

After the trial period some export and upload, and perhaps effect choices, like plugins, and audio tracks are disabled; can't recall precisely. VP offers many production choices, whereas WMM may not. File size depends upon several factors. Generally, the best quality is achieved when export settings match content. In Videopad's export menus try the "resolution" field's AUTO MATCH. In the "format" field, click the FILE SIZE link to see the quality options.

What didn't work? Didn't come out as mono? Is centering of the voice track what you are attempting to do? Right-click the voice track and SAVE AUDIO AS NEW FILE. Upload that file to a free server, such as Dropbox, Google Drive, Microsoft OneDrive, etc. Copy (share) the link to the file and paste it here. We'll take a look. In OneDrive, simply right-click the file and CREATE A SHARABLE LINK. Post that link.

All audio - stereo music background and left-channel only voice - seem to be intact. If something is actually missing, perhaps the track is muted or the volume turned down?? One way to get the voice centered would be to right-click on its track and SAVE AUDIO AS NEW FILE. It will show up in the Windows MUSIC folder. Load that file into WavePad. Click the STEREO button at the bottom of the interface and choose MONO (single channel). Save that file and import it back into Videopad, replacing the original audio. Now the audio should be centered.

You have inadvertently trimmed the sequence. The overlaid (dark) portion won't export. Click the chevron at the far left of the bin tabs (bin window, top-left) to reveal the SEQUENCE tab. Click on it. Under the preview window drag the scrubber (the red line) all the way to the right. Click the ] bracket, to set that as the out point. The overlay should vanish.

As mentioned in the last post, you have to make the file shareable. The link that you provided only opens Google Drive; it doesn't point to your specific file.

Once the image is uploaded to DRIVE, right-click it there and GET SHAREABLE LINK. Post that link here.

Sounds as if a screenshot of the VP desktop would demonstrate the issue. Save it to a file, perhaps using your photo application. To take a screenshot in Windows, press the Windows key and the HOME key simultaneously. Paste it into the photo program with <ctrl-V> or use the EDIT menu|PASTE choice. Give the file a name and save it. Now upload that file to DropBox, Google Drive, Microsoft OneDrive, IMGUR or the like. They're all free. Just sign up. Copy (share or "get a link") and paste that link into a post here.

You cannot attach it, but you can upload the file to a server, then copy (share) the link to that file here. Photos, videos, text files - makes no difference.

OPTIONS|DISK tab. Click the BROWSE button and specify the cache path there.

Titles (text boxes) placed on the timeline always have IN and OUT points, automatically, and they export fine here. If possible, upload and link an image of your project timeline here. Instructions are near the top of this forum: "Tips for getting help on this forum."

A transition of that length is very unlikely. .500 would be a half-second. Switch to Storyboard mode to see if there is an unwanted, short clip between those intended for the transition. Delete it. As for the "overlay" ... are you referring to the area that states: Drag clip here to add to end of sequence?" If so, cClick the double-headed arrow icon near the bottom-right of the VP screen to fit the entire project into the timeline. Or scroll it with the nearby slider.

What is the resolution of the files and what export resolution and format have you chosen? Share the project and someone will check it out. For instructions on how, see the "Tips for getting help in this forum" post near the top of this forum.

If possible please record the screen as you make these moves, upload it to Google Drive, DropBox, MS OneDrive or the like and link (share) it here. That will help folks sort out the issue.

Perhaps you need a new device to interface the VHS with your USB computer port, in lieu of the grabber. Go here and watch the three videos, which include a Debut tutorial. Others, like Nat, are capturing successfully, so you WILL succeed.

Shouldn't Debut BE the alternative to the grabber? Or is your need something that the grabber can do but Debut cannot? Check into their forum. Debut Video Capture Features Record videos as avi, wmv, flv, mpg, mp4, mov and more video formats Capture video from a webcam, network IP camera or video input device (e.g., VHS recorder) Screen capture software records the entire screen, a single window or any selected portion Mouse highlighting spotlights the location of the cursor when using screen recorder Record audio from your microphone and speakers with your video; ideal for recording video conferences and webinars
