purchasing home or master's?

[LarryMully]

Hi,

 

because I've been experiencing a lot of bugs in the free version recently, I decided to purchase one of the paid versions... (I'm currently using the beta 3.31, which is glitchy as well). I have a few questions..

 

1. the price (50 or 30 $), is only to be paid once, right? I don't need to pay that amount each month?

 

2. VideoPad Video Editor Home Edition

Fully featured, but allows only two audio tracks

 

does this mean I'll only have TWO overlay tracks? which means I can't make a splitscreen (2 audio tracks) + background music (another audio track)?! if so, I'm going to buy the master's edition.

 

 

If hope someone can answer these questions for me! I really want to stop using the glitchy beta

Hello,

 

1. The price is a one-time payment which gives you a license key sent via e-mail. This license key is used to activate proper version (Master's/Home).

2. With the Home version, you can mix two tracks together to make 1 clip. You can then add background music the new audio file. If you would like to mix 3 tracks at once, you would need to choose the Master's Edition.

 

I hope this information is helpful. If you need more assistance, let us know!

So, with the Home Edition, can I mix two audio tracks into one track, and subsequently mix another audio track with that one?

I understand that, aside from the two-audio-track limitation, the Home Edition does not allow external plug-ins. How useful are plug-ins? Is there a list available ones that I could look at?

Hi

 

The plug-ins refer to the virtual dub filters that will work with this software. These are free third party video enhancing/effects creation programs that work with the Virtual Dub freeware.

Some of the more useful ones are found here...

but there are other sites where you can download more.

 

The plug-in generally incorporated into VP is the "Deshaker" plugin by Gunnar Thain and within VP it works very well

What does it mean when it says that the home version is limited to 16 tracks and the master version is unlimited tracks?
