Thanks for your posts and advice. I know a lot more now. I think I will stick with HEVC  and will just have the patience for it to be cached.

But I hope in later releases you resolve this caching problem and also look forward to 5.3K and higher on Videopad. 

My OSMO ACTION 3 records in HEVC format. When I want to make a clip by putting the files on Videopad it takes a very long time to cache. It was suggested to me to use PRISM to first convert my file from HEVC to H264 and then work with them on Videopad. 

I notice that PRISM come in two formats. One is Home Version which is free. Can the home version do this conversion? 

Thanks for your message. I am not a very technical person and takes time to check your message and understand the details. 

Yes, I have set the OSMO Action to record in another format (HEVC) because the quality is higher. It was suggested to me, now if I return to H264 I will have a lower quality clip made by my camera. I am sure my Sony format is H264.

Do you mean that now I can put this file in PRISM and it will give me a H264 clip, and then I can put it on Videopad and the quality of the product I get will be exactly like if I had put my original clip on Videopad?  Also, the home version of Prism which is free, can it make that conversion or do I have to buy Prism to be able to do that?

Or waiting for a long time is the only option I have? I was wondering if Videopad might have a setting for working with HEVC files that will make it fast to cache?

I installed the 64 bit version  and it is working, but the speed for the files is the same and slow. 

Here is a link to one of the files from DJI Osmo Action 3 camera that takes a long time to be processed and ready to work on:

Can you please tell me is there a way that Videopad can process it faster when I upload it to Videopad so that I can work on it. 

I changed the access.

Thanks for your advice. I notice the green line you mention, and it seems like where it is on, I can see the video without any gaps. The problem is with the files with my new Osmo Action 3 I have to wait a "long time" for the green line to be filled up and ready to view, unlike the files with my 2 year old Sony camera or my older version of Action Camera.

Also I have bought the latest version of Videopad in Nov this year, and when I was buying or downloading it, it was not mentioned what bit version it is. I had only one option. My version which I installed recently after I bought it is  version  12.28.  

Can I now install the file that you mention? I have downloaded it. Do I have to pay for it or I just can install it?  From the name of it it sounds like it is a more advanced version as the name is Videopad Version 12.33.

Thanks for your advice. I notice the green line you mention, and it seems like where it is on, I can see the video without any gaps. Also I have bought the latest version of Videopad and when I was buying it was not mentioned what bit version it is. I had only one option. How could I check out the version? 

When I want to process videos that I have taken with my new DJI Osmo Action 3  (4K, 30 frames, HDR) Videopad stops, the picture freezes and I just hear the sound, then the picture becomes jumpy and moves every 10 seconds or more while the sound is good and I see this at the bottom left: "Buffering preview..please wait" .

I have 64 GB Ram and intel core I9-9900k processor, Dell computer, very powerful. 

I don't have this problem with my videos from my Sony camera, even the 4 k ones.

What is the problem. What should I do? Can I change anything in the settings? Or is these files too powerful for Videopad home edition? 

Thanks for your message. I have noticed that mp4 is better quality and accepted on more websites than AVI. So there is no way I can have an MP4 stabilized file? It only comes out at AVI? 

I want my stabilized video to be in MP4 format but I don't find any options to choose MP4  when I am stabilizing a video. It automatically produces an AVI format.
