Cannot export!

[WayBeyondHope]

I read the post about exporting taking forever. I could live with forever, but I get NEVER. I have tried to export to file using avi, wmv and mpg. It has reached 90 percent a couple of times, but usually crashes much earlier. (unexpected event, etc. etc.) The project is about two hours long and involves no complex edits or layering. I have Windows 7 with a 3.4 intel and 12 gig of ram. That should be enough to handle this task, but I did try closing all programs and not using the computer, to no avail. I also flushed all caches and temp files and tried uninstall/reinstall. of the Video Pad program.(3,04) I also tried to burn it, but the program simply quits at the same place every time (19 percent) with no error message. .I have examined the project at that point and there is nothing there but one video and one audio track, no layers or transitions or stray bits on other tracks.

 

Forget that the program crashes frequently no matter what I do (or don't do: it sometimes crashes before all the clips load). I have managed to slog through all that and get the thing edited. I just need to get it exported. Can anyone help?

Following my post last night I tried one fore time to export to file as an mpg. After more than ten hours, the program crashed (abnormal execution problem/abnormal exception) at

NINETY-NINE PERCENT!! arrrrrg!!

This also keeps on happening to me. Looks like the VideoPad people need to get on this fast.

The VideoPad people never get on ANYTHING fast

Same problem here.

It never ever finishes the export. (avi, mov,... I tried it all)

It stops at 3% or smaller sizes at 50%!

Anyone any suggestions to help me solve this?

Thanks!
