VideoPad not exporting transitions

[Steamranger]

I've found two threads from a long time ago that give (seemingly) the same issue, but with different symptoms. However, the solutions in those threads haven't worked for me.

So, here's my problem:

I'm making a simple video, 10 seconds long, nothing too complex. I add a transition between two clips (specifically an image clip and a video clip, incase it matters). This transition shows perfectly in the preview, it looks exactly how I need it. However, when exporting the video it's almost like the transition has been undone. The first clip just plays until the time that it ends and then switches over to the next clip, rather than doing a fade how I need it to.

I've tried many solutions but none of them work, I've even cleared the cache and re-installed the app but it STILL DOESNT WORK.

 

Anyway, Thanks in advance.

If you have version 12.x or 13.x, it may help to change the GPU video processor. Go to menu "Options", then "Advanced". Try changing the "GPU Video Processor" to "None (CPU only)". Rendering might be slower with that setting, but if the transition is correct, it's worth the time.

Well I have version 11.80, and (although I'm using a laptop) it's got a GTX 1050 which works with video editing.

Then I suggest to try the newest version (see here: https://www.nchsoftware.com/videopad/index.html )... maybe it's a problem of version 11.80?

Thanks, the newest version did work.

I do wonder what was causing it in the old version.

I had trouble with some of the 11.x versions, too. Since version 12, major improvements were made (at least, that's what I experienced).
