The Basics of Video Creation using Video Pad Pro (Professional) by NCH Software Part 1

Newly added part 2 • Advanced Features in V...
If you have never used Video Pad Pro I will help you get your first video imported, edited, exported and ready for upload. We will keep it simple and cover some of the most basic features like titles, editing clips, transitions between scenes, fading in and fading out. Thanks for watching!

[@Izak80]

I’ve got a question regarding effects, how do i make an effect (like snowflakes for example) last for a certain amount of time? When i tried it just recently and added it to one of my video-clips it lasted the whole video through. I would just like to have it for a couple of seconds at the beginning of the clip? Thanks in advance!

[@coffeecomputersandmore2300]

@@Izak80 I just checked the FX menu and there is not stop/start or duration time for the effect but what you can do is use the red bar to cut where you want the snow to start, cut where you want it to stop. Highlight the clip where you want the snow to happen and apply the snow to just that clip.

[@Izak80]

@@coffeecomputersandmore2300 Thanks for the Quick reply. I sort of tried that but from what i could see cutting (using the scissor icon) a video-clip made the video freeze for a millisecond right where the cuts were and i don’t want that to happen. I’m gonna try it again though just to be sure.

[@coffeecomputersandmore2300]

@@Izak80 That may only happen in pre production.

Thanks for sharing!

[@wagonroad534]

After about one minute of watching I moved the red dot back to start because I missed something; and that’s the way things went, over and over again, all the way to the end. I concluded that Travis’s audience is composed of people who have experience in video editing and have huge I.Q.’s. I’ll get it eventually, it just takes time and patience, over and over again.

[@we-are-electric1445]

Excellent video. Went through lots of videos yesterday to try to find one that would get me to a point where I could make basic content and get it uploaded. Every video I watched I soon found was poor. I then found your video and in a couple of hours of watching and trying the software alongside with my own videos and pictures I am confident I am in a position to produce a video and get it uploaded. If anyone reading this is looking to get started with Video Pad then this is the video to watch first.

[@coffeecomputersandmore2300]

Thank you for watching! I'm a bit long winded but I wanted to cover the most important details so you could at least get a video finished.

[@we-are-electric1445]

@@coffeecomputersandmore2300 It's not long winded,it covers enough detail for someone new to the software. It is easy for someone familiar with the software to get casual with the mouse - so it is not always 100% clear what they are selecting. The number of times I have seen a mouse cursor whizzing round the screen and I have no idea what the person is clicking on. People presenting videos often miss the point completely and the video is rendered useless very quickly. When I see a video like that I just move to the next one quickly and try that instead..After all, your video was less than half an hour and has got me to the point where I am confident of getting my first video together.. I managed to emulate most of it on the first pass - revisiting it again to cover a couple of points that didn't work so easily first time. I've spent less time on your video than I have watching other videos that I have given up on. I hope this post will encourage others to stop at this video and watch it through. A second video on more use of text and also putting your own voice over at different points of the video probably covers most of what I ever see on KZbin videos.

Your video helped a great deal, thank you very much!! Scott.

[@coffeecomputersandmore2300]

Glad to help. The key is to only focus on the features you need and then slowly learn how to do more. I agree. When I first used it I was coming over from Cyber Video or Cyber DVD so the transition wasn’t too rough.

You definitely have a talent for tutorials... wish this would have been around before I had to stumble around trying to figure this out on my own. I learned a lot of new things watching your video and am getting ready for part two. Video Pad has everything I need, I love the process of creating videos. BUT! It freezes and locks up my PC every time I use it. I have to use the task manager to shut down the computer. (I've tried Taskm > file > new task run explorer.exe) Still locked up! - Fortunately, it usually saves & reloads when I'm up and running. A great program...I just have to solve the freeze up.

[@coffeecomputersandmore2300]

Be sure to check out my advanced features video for Video Pad Pro! As for the system freezing, do you have your PC with all updates installed? I know it would cost money but you may be better off paying for a fresh download of the program and get the newest version.

Hi there, thank you so much for your help. As i tried to use it, i found the following issues. Would you please guide a) The video i recorded on phone and transferred to videopad editor on laptop somehow appears very small when finally exported to mp4. So its like a tiny bit on the whole youtube screen. How may i rectify that? b) Is there any check to do on phone before we start recording for youtube, so that it appears neat and complete as a mp4 video c) If there is a video (with audio) and i want that to be on a low volume while i play another audio/call for action during the same timeline, I see only option for muting the linked audio. Which means the video I am playing cannot be muted and only the audio has to be muted. How do I get this done? Thanks in advance.
