VideoPad: Project Won't Export as .mp4

Working on a 3-minute video project right now. Has been going great, until two days ago it stopped allowing me to export the file as an .mp4. So far, it exports as an .mpg (only partially -- it stops at 1:15 for some reason, and the video quality is pixelated) and an .mkv file, but lossless video exporting or exporting as an .mp4 is not an option. This isn't an issue for other projects; it's just this one that's giving me a hard time. If there's any quick trouble-shooting options aside from reinstalling VideoPad completely, please let me know. Thanks!

What Videopad version is being used?

Lossless export is subject to these restrictions...   https://www.nch.com.au/kb/10288.html

If using an unlicensed release mp4 may be blocked.  Try AVI.

Here's the latest.  Install takes only seconds and your current version can be reinstalled.  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 freezing persists, please share your project.  Someone will analyze it and come up with a fix.  The process is easy, quick and can be done privately.  Just follow these steps...

  •     Back up --- With your project on the timeline, click on MENU at the top-left.  Click FILE|BACK UP PROJECT FILES TO FOLDER.  Choose a folder and SELECT FOLDER.
  •     Upload ---  Use a free server - Google Drive, MS OneDrive, etc.* - to upload the saved, numbered FOLDER.    Do NOT upload the individual VPJ or export file. 
  •     Get link --- Get a public link.  If using Google Drive click GET SHAREABLE LINK. If necessary change "restricted" to "anyone with the link can view" 
  •     Share ---     Click COPY LINK | DONE.  Paste that link here, or click the folder at the top-right of this forum to message it privately to me.  It won't be shared.

          *    Before uploading, right-click the folder, click PROPERTIES.  Look at the File Size to confirm that it's not too big for the free space on the server.
