dano1 Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 I'm using V3.04 of VideoPad with a Windows 8 computer. When I try to change a video clip to slow motion, it momentarily works, but on playback, the screen for that clip is black. The slowed down audio still plays, but there's no video showing on the clip. If I undo the change, the video returns. This only happens when changing to go slower, not faster. It also happens in both Timeline and Storyboard modes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borate Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 I'm using V3.04 of VideoPad with a Windows 8 computer. When I try to change a video clip to slow motion, it momentarily works, but on playback, the screen for that clip is black. Here, using Windows 7, slowing a clip adds a black area ahead of the slow-mo portion. If one splits the clip (intending to excise the black) then preview video is all black. Hints that this is a bug.

dano1 Posted July 12, 2013 Author Share Posted July 12, 2013 This a serious bug. Do you know if they're going to fix it? I'd really like my old version 2.4 back. But apparently I can't get it with Windows 8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fredlavia Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 I have the same BUG when changing the speed to faster motion. I use windows 8 and get a black screen. Also got the same problem when adding sequences with Zoom effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XP and win7. where is the fix? Likely in the next version. Slo/fast-mo aren't working correctly, as experienced here and reported by others.

yates Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 I have the same issue with 3.12, will this ever be fixed? I have paid TWICE for this software over a long period of time hoping that this would be fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nationalsolo Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 Hi winning2013 "i am having the same issue on 2 computers. if i slow down the clip, 2 things happen, sound gets garbled and video turns black. XP and win7. where is the fix?" If you slow down a clip (i.e. stretch out its playing time) then VP will also stretch out the soundtrack to match making it run slower and therefore play at lower pitch. You can, however get around this if you create a separate sound file and then use one of the sound manipulation programs that are availbale that will extend a soundtrack without changing the pitch. It generally does this by inserting tiny gaps into the soundtrack that are barely noticeable. The soundtrack is lengthened as a consequence but the pitch is not changed. If carried to extreme however the sound will develop an audible stacatto effect as the gaps become more evident. No idea why the video disappears though.
