Zane Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 I'm trying to export an MP4 using VideoPad 8.18, but the Export Queue is stuck at Preparing Export and does not progress passed 0.0%. My specs are: Processor - AMD Ryzen 7 7200 Eight-core processor 3.20 GHz Installed RAM - 16 GB 64-bit operating system I've tried exporting this video a few times letting it run for a couple of hours each time, but it never makes any progress. The MP4 file size remains at 164 bytes. Send help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borate Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 Is there reverse video in your project? Try this Videopad version. But bear in mind... For licensed users upgrades are free for up to six months from purchase date. After that, VP will continue to fully function but a fee will be required in order to register the newest. Retain your old install file and registration info. If that doesn't help, share your project and someone will check it out. Just follow the step-by-step instructions for a PORTABLE project... http://nch.invisionzone.com/topic/23659-tips-for-getting-help-on-this-forum/ If it contains sensitive material link it in a personal message (PM). Click the envelope above. It won't be passed on or retained. Use FILE|SAVE PORTABLE PROJECT AS, not simply SAVE PROJECT, and don't forget to get a shareable, public link - not one that is restricted.

Zane Posted July 18, 2020 Author Share Posted July 18, 2020 I checked on the export 3 or 4 hours later today and it had finished. I don't know if there was a problem at all, or if there was it would be in tracking progress. I guess it just needed a really long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borate Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 How long is the project? What is the resolution of the bulk of the source files? Share the project and we'll see how export results here compare with yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drakkaar Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 Hello Zane, I've run into a similar issue, so I hope I am able to offer some insight/help on the matter. I seem to notice that this will happen if I try to export my video before it has finished processing my clips.. I just use the software to make some Montages of a game I play, but very simple edits with no real changes (Aside from the odd increase in the speed of the clip). There's a yellow bar that goes across each clip, if I attempt to export my video BEFORE this has completed, then I will get the issue mentioned above. However, if you simply Save the PROJECT, then re-open it, ensuring that all of it has finished processing, then start your export again. Hope this helps, please let me know if it makes a difference for you as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borate Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 Not a bad suggestion, though exports have often been successful here without waiting for caching to complete. Note posting dates: you have tacked on to a year-old thread. Architecture has changed and processing is faster now. Check out the 64-bit version.
