Awesome tip videofreak! I’m now convinced it’s a videopad bug. heres what I did. Uninstall/reinstall. No dice! So I reopened the project and did your suggestion. As expected it was crashing at export every time at 2.5%. (This was the 16 second mark on the timeline) which happened to be the start of the first transition. I Removed the transition, this time export got by 2.5% no problem! It then went to 8% (the 25 second mark) then crashed. You guessed it. It would crash again at the start of another transition! I Removed it, I could now export again and again it got past the 8% mark. That is, until it hit the next transition then would crash. so here’s where I’m at....as long as I use ZERO transitions my videos export just fine. The second a transition is in my timeline “any” transition will crash my export?? not sure where that leaves me? It would be nice to be able to transition videos, that’s what makes them look professional maybe this helps the software team? whats the cure for transitions killing exports? Thanks for all the knowledgeable replies

Thanks Borate for the info. I will upload my projects as per instructions. NO sensitive material exists. Then will go from there thanks again

Banging my head on the wall here. About 13 years ago I did a lot of Video for weddings. Back then using MiniDV and editing in a licensed copy of Premiere Pro. So I was looking for a basic program to edit family projects now that technology has gone away from tapes. So I tried, liked it, then purchased Videopad. However, after many hours of troubleshooting and reading many others online having the SAME problem, I may be canceling my subscription to Videopad. In a nutshell ive been wasting my time on something that should be simple. I can't export video. It crashes each and every time at 2.5%. regardless of settings at export, tried them all. Im running windows 10 on a fairly new PC. I know its NOT my hardware. How I know this? Simply because after I updated my video Codecs I was able to EXPORT my video in Videopad. Just once! Next day.....im back to not being able to?? Ive done all trouble shooting steps -latest version CHECK -clear cashe CHECK -export different settings (default,mpeg etc....) CHECK I am able to EXPORT one way and one way only......it WILL make a DVD image of the timeline each and everytime no problem. Great if that's what I was after. Any advice would be great thanks
