VideoPad Pro By NCH Full Tutorial

VideoPad Pro By NCH Full Tutorial
This is a tutorial and is a long video. I tried to cover as many items and tipics in VideoPad Pro by NCH, as much as I could but I had to let a lot of features out to save some time. If you have any questions on this product or how to use it, or editing in general, don't hesitate to ask. I will try to help as best I can.

Hello, this was soo helpful! I watched the whole video from start to finish. Do you plan to make some video only about how to do all the video effects in videopad, please? :D I struggle a lot with those and there is no complete tutorial on youtube on only effects. I am just asking :D cause you explained everything so well, that it was easy to understand and I actually used a lot of things you said. Thank you so much for your great work! And dont worry about the length of this video, I clicked on it BECAUSE it was long, cause I felt like it is gonna be more helpful than watching something which is 5 minutes long...so thanks!

[@HayesTech]

I will look into that now. I may be able to fit in some time to help you out. I'm not concerned with making videos that only get multiple watches... If my videos help one person, I consider it a success .

[@ImagineFreedom]

@@HayesTech thank you! you helped me a lot already

[@HayesTech]

@@ImagineFreedom I had to take a break and I just released a video explaining that and updating where we are at for the giveaway. But I'm starting to get back into production again this week. It will be a little slower at first but I should be back up to fill production soon and I'll try to get that video done for you

[@janeabrambilla5158]

I love this tutorial. I purchased Video Pad, but couldn't understand how to use it. Dave's in-depth explanation was a huge help. I record audio on ProTools and video at the same time with my phone, but I didn't know how to sync the sound with the video. I even contacted Video Pad and asked for a refund. Then I discovered Dave Hayes. Thank you so much!!! Now, if I could just export to KZbin without it failing. Arrrg!

[@asherahalchemy5101]

Thank you so much for this very clear tutorial. I am really liking this software. It's easy to use. I already use the NCH mix pad and wave pad music editing software, which i love. Thanks again for the clarity, you are a fantastic teacher!

I love your upload, thx. I decided to go all-in with Videopad and bought the full version, I don't regret that at all. In my humble opinion, Videopad is the best editor available on the market and its intuitive & nice user interface makes this a gem.

[@HayesTech]

I felt the same way and that's why I purchased it too. They try to get you to buy it again in about a year, with updates to the program, but you don't have to update it if you don't want to. But do far the updates have been very good and I don't mind $30.00 some b bucks a year for a program if the updates are beneficial.

Thank you so much for the awesome comments. I really do appreciate it.

Wow, thank you for a crystal clear tutorial on some of the important functions of VideoPad. I've been using Windows Movie Maker for over ten years, but recently bought a new desktop with Windows 10, which means no more Movie Maker. So I purchased VideoPad as I typically use WavePad for all my audio editing. I've been struggling with VideoPad for some time now, but thanks to your helpful hints, I've figured out how to do so much. Thank you again! Scott.

[@HayesTech]

It was my pleasure that I was able to help out. Messages like yours makes this all worth doing. Even if I only help one person, it's worth making the video. If you want anything else explained, in a video, just let me know. I started making a bunch of shorter videos addressing everything in this application. You may want to check those out too. Thank you again for watching and responding with such an awesome comment.

@@HayesTech I'm very happy to support your KZbin channel. I'm actually a very tech savvy musician, but this program sort of puzzled me. I'll check more of your videos out. I'm also a guitar teacher of 30 years, and I feel you have a good style in conveying information...well done my friend!

[@HayesTech]

@@ScottOuelletteGuitar Thank you I really do appreciate it. That's weird, I am a guitar player myself and I have some videos out on my grandson and I playing and reviewing a couple guitars. Some of them are on my small channel, (Life, Post Stroke ), but most of them are on this channel. Ever since my second stroke though my guitar playing was severely compromised because of my partial paralysis in my right side. I did happen to find a manufacturer that makes pics that help people with arthritis and issues like that, that has got me back into playing guitar again. So it's almost like starting all over again. I know how to cord, now I have to learn strumming and rhythm again... Lol.

[@briesaintil2549]

you don't need to buy it anymore its free

[@HayesTech]

Yes it is free, but if you want to use any of the add ons you will need to purchase it. Also, I'm not sure if rendering in 4k is supported in the free version either... It may very well be, but if I like a program, I like to purchase it (unless they are crazy with the cost ..lol) and have use of all the purchases features. But yes.. this is a free program, for the most part and will do what most people need without pitching it. But again, I am very happy with my purchase.

Loved The Tutorial, Thank You. My only gripe is the music playing in the background. I LOVE listening to and creating music and, unfortunately for me, by brain tends to focus on the music. I have the same problem with movie dialog when music is playing:( But, Thanks Again for the Extremely Helpful video.

Yes, I could have lowered the volume to the music a little more. I do agree with you on that. I am still learning though and appreciate the help input

[@SVUfannyc]

Same here! I love music lol Just a tad bit lower wud be fine.

[@SVUfannyc]

Just a tad bit lower wud've been fine. Im still learning a lot too, and there was this one video where I thought it was too loud and lowered it till the peak never went passed around-20dbs or -15dbs (based on the meters in videopad) and it seemed okay but then I heard it w/other headphones(after uploading) it still seemed a little loud when i ment for it to be more of a background sound. -_- I think it depends on the style of music too. Anyways really liked seeing the transitions in action!:)

You are welcome, just enjoyed learning all about adding transitions. I can appreciate the moustache hair in your mouth, happened to my uncle all the time. I'm a newbie you tuber Seashell's Journey been working toward production since December last year. I never thought I'd figure out one video let alone upload others. Yesterday I just about did my computer in, exporting a file and my goodness the end result appeared with lines and a green screen playing audio from previous clip it then went back to the beginning but played audio from the next cli[p I thought I had added to make one long video. Have heard tutorials on overlay and transparency? is that may what I'm not doing properly also I have issues with getting my sound quality right. Thanks heaps for this full tutorial, I look forward to watching more. You're clear to understand, thorough give great examples and may I say "Don't believe it's an ugly mug!" Seashell

[@HayesTech]

I have learned that less is best when it comes to transitions. I rarely use them in my videos now. And audio is very personal. What one person may like, another thinks is total crap...lol.. just make sure to use a good mic and record your audio separate from your video and put them together in post. And always record your audio say under 12db. You can always make it louder but you can never recover from audio that's recorded too loud. Hope that answers your questions and yes, I had to trim my mustache.. it was getting a tad long.

[@seashellsjourney8266]

@@HayesTech Thanks for your reply, and your feedback.

[@nabeelalmoosawi2455]

Hi David, very interesting tutorial and you have explained lots of things, sorry to hear about the stroke & i hope you get well soon. whenever you can if you could explain to me (1-what is the difference between delete & ripple delete and when to use which) (2-on the audio track how can i reduce a selected part of it, for instance, i don't want to delete the hand clapping on your video but i want to lower the volume) (3- how to pause the video to type names of people in it) (4- how to insert bubble box text) thank you

[@HayesTech]

1) When you delete something it just does that, deleted it and you get a space of dead air where that piece of video with that. But in a ripple delete, it deletes what you want and then pulls the rest of the video, following the deleted portion, into the previous with no gaps.

[@HayesTech]

2) To reduce volume on a specific portion, but not all the audio, just cut before and after the desired areas first. Then lower the volume in that specific area.

[@HayesTech]

3) I'm not exactly sure what you mean in this question... Sorry about that.

[@nabeelalmoosawi2455]

Thank you sir

[@HayesTech]

4) I've never used bubble boxes text either. I'll have to research that. But I'm sure that in the text area, where you can change text type and color or size, maybe there is a setting for that. I will have to dig into that. Thank you so much for watching and for commenting. So sorry it took me so long to get back to you.

Great video David. I've got the free version of Videopad which I intend to upgrade if it turns out good. Is the professional version the same?

[@HayesTech]

I don't remember now, the differences between the 2 but I can edit 4k videos with ease using it. It's worth purchasing. At least for me it was. If you don't edit a lot of videos than the free version may be the way to go but for about $40.00 it's will worth getting.

[@PeteOnTheBeat]

Hello again, Is it normal for the clips to freeze? As I said before,i have a 16 seconds clip that I'm looping for around 2mins. I'm adding some effects,like mirror and reverse. I've tried this a lot of times and there's always at least one clip that freezes in the middle(not the middle of the video,but the middle of that clip). Am I doing something wrong? Or is it just a bug?

[@HayesTech]

I'm not sure. I don't have that issue. I have found that when I had issues with the program, after upgrading to the latest version, all or any issue I had disappeared. I know that's bull to have to upgrade but you may want to try that. I figure it this way, I have a channel with a lot of videos and I want the software I'm using for editing to be up to date, even if it runs me about $30.00 year.

[@waltzingmatilda1372]

Incredibly informative. I just purchased the software and am ready to go, but I want to use green screen. Do you have any video or tips on using green screen. I figured out how to remove the green....almost all of it, as i have uneven lighting which made one end lighter than the other, so I have some lighting work to do, but I couldn't figure out how to replace it with a graphic.

[@HayesTech]

I've been asked to do another video showing some of the features I skipped over for time in the 2 videos I made on this software. You will see a pinned post, at the top of the posts, and comment in there what other things you would like to see in the upcoming video. I'll try to remember the "green screen" but with my stroke brain bring what it is, I may forget it....lol.. But yes, I would be happy too. I've never done a green screen though and it will be a learning experience for me as well.

[@thepetlamb]

Very helpful, thanks! I'm slightly confused about why you need to repeatedly render the drafts, then bring them back into editing again.. I thought rendering was the very last step, once you were happy with the final edit?

[@HayesTech]

It's just there way I edit. I do it in steps. Since I use several camera angles, I first bring all the camera angles into one time line. Then I bring that video in for first major edit. Then I'll do another for creating B-roll. Then bring the B-roll and 2nd draft in for combining. I usually add in music at that time too. That's just how it works best for me.

[@RogersWorldandAdventures]

Your video is great as i use vu=ideo pad i listen to it a few times i was wondering if you have the same or similar video with no music as i found it sometimes difficult to absorb but otherwise great thank you

[@HayesTech]

No I don't. But The next video I do, a I'll leave it out. Again, I'm still learning to and experimenting with things. I just had the volume up to high on the video. Then you for watching and for commenting, I do appreciate it.

Nice tutorial, David. I've used the basic VideoPad alot. The Pro version allows external plugins - have you used any of these external plugins ? p.s. Davinci Resolve just crashes on my system on the free version and tech support won't help.

[@HayesTech]

No, I don't use any of the plug-ins yet.. But I may in the future. As for DaVinci Resolve, I only use that for color correcting. And to be honest, I very rarely do any color correcting either, so I don't use it hardly at all. I do know that you have to have at least a quad core processor and a video card to use DaVinci Resolve. Now I only have 8Gb of ddr4 ram and my video card is built into the mother board but DaVinci Resolve definitely works on my laptop. Believe me, I was surprised that it did.

When you’re editing titles. How come it doesn’t have the video in the background. So you can take your titles And adjust them where you want them on the video. Seems like it takes a long time to do it this way? Can you help

[@HayesTech]

Im not sure I know what your asking me. But, to see the script your typing, make sure the timeline curser is in the area that you added the title too. So move the timeline to the middle of the script area. Other than that I'm not sure. I've been telling everyone here that I've switched to using DaVinci Resolve since getting my new laptop that has the ability to use it. So I only use NCH for editing my B-roll. I will still try and help out, with your questions, but I do need a little more explanation of what you are trying to do with the text.

[@Njoofene]

I recorded a video to edit on Vidoepad. I didn't add any extra/separate audio, only the video I recorded where I'm taling. However, when I tried to edit the video with Videopad, the video and audio don't sync. Also, there is a lot of boofering.

[@HayesTech]

The audio not being in sync, if the audio was attached to the video, was out of sync from the camera. It's not the video editing software. To correct this (and it may be difficult since it's out of sync from the source) you would need to first unlink the audio from the video and then slowly, in very small increments, mine the audio one way or the other until it looks good to you. #### You may have to do this a couple times through the video though. ### I had this issue with one of the cheep action cameras that I reviewed. That's why I like to record audio separately with my Zoom H1n and my Sony lapel microphone ( $25.00 for the Don't mic from Amazon) and add that audio in post. But from what your telling me, it's a camera issue, most likely the software.

[@WhatsupWayneLWC]

Do I have to save each edit individually or is there a way to batch several edits before saving?

[@HayesTech]

That's a tough one and I am sorry I don't have an answer for you there. I've never head to save several edits so I have never tried that. I usually work on a single project at a time and save it. I may name it "edit 1 of project whatever" and so on. I normally bring in still my videos and connect them together in the timeline they need to be and then process that. Then I'll bring that into edit and cut out what I don't want and chop out anything that I don't want and process that. Then I'll bring it back into editing and add in the like share and subscribe and my ending. Then I'll add in any "B-roll" and music and process that as my finished video for uploading to KZbin. With my second stroke this seems to be the easiest way for me to do it. I really hope this answers you question and I want to thank you for subscribing. I checked out your channel and after realizing I like your content, I subscribed to your channel too so nice work sir.

[@WhatsupWayneLWC]

I figured it out. I work with church videos which have several individuals at the podium at different times on the same video . The volume naturally is all over the place so I split the video between each speaker and work the volume up or down as needed which works surprisingly well. when finished I render the video with all the changes .

[@HayesTech]

@@WhatsupWayneLWC looks like you are getting it very quickly and sounds to me like you are doing exactly the right thing. It's difficult getting 3 different audio soused together but can be done. I line up still the audio, to get everything synced and then cut it when ever I need to change to a different camera angle, like a different person taking, and get rid of the audio I don't want, along with the video I don't want.... Basically just like you did it. I do want to thank you again for watching my video and for commenting and most of all for subscribing.

how do you do picture in picture, i think thats what its called- when you have the main video at the centre and have a another one maybe in the top right

[@HayesTech]

The effect you're looking for is under the video effects and it's called crop. Put the clip that you want smaller, on top of the main clip, then click to highlight that small clip or the clip that you want smaller, then go into video effects and choose crop. You can make it as big or as small as you want, I just use 16x9 and make it the size I want. I hope that helps, thanks for watching and for commenting.

Hello sir, so uhh I've recorded a gameplay footage of a game that I really enjoyed playing but thing is I recorded it from my mobile phone. Do I need to move it to PC first and then add it into this editor ? And then I'll be able to cut/split every parts that I dont like, like you did in this video ? And how do I add the recorded clips into the editor ? Sorry if I asked a really basic questions, I haven't grasped the ideas of making a video and I am here ready to learn.

[@HayesTech]

You should be able to pull those videos from your phone and put them into a folder on your PC. Name them something you'll recognize easily. They usually are MP4 format from cellphones, but that really doesn't matter, this program should have no issues playing it. Once your videos are off your phone and into your PC you will be able to pull them into this program for editing. Let me know if you need anything else.

The price is for the purchased version of the software. This is a free video editing tool, but to use some of their extra features, you have to purchase the program.

hi david i dont understand why there are 2 videos one on top of the other i usually put everything on one line and just cut the things out i dont want then press line up tracks to the beginning perhaps im doing it the hard way

[@HayesTech]

In my case there are 2 videos on top of each other because I'm using 2 cameras. That way I can switch between the 2 shots, to help break up the video a bit. It just makes the video look more professional. You definitely do not need to use 2 cameras and it will be much easier to edit.

Very interesting video. I have hours of VHS video from the 1980's, Hi8 video afterwards of my kids growing up, and now I have 4K videos that I want to digitalize and edit. I currently have Pinnacle Studio 19 and Movie Studio Platinum 13.0 which I'm struggling with how to use them properly. Your tutorial of this software looks much easier to use. One question, is there a way to make an index and be able to click on a clip directly to view vs. trying to find by fast forwarding? like a chapter on some movies? Each VHS or Hi8 tape will have many different scenes over a one or two year period like birthdays, holiday, swimming, etc. Your tutorial video does a very nice job of moving the cursor slowly to be able to follow, giving detailed information, then playing the clip in real time to show the change. Thank you.

[@HayesTech]

As for making an index for direct viewing, I am sorry but I have no experience editing VHS and other non digital media formats. I really wish I could help you more with this. It sounds to me like you are very versed in video editing. The only thing I use this for is editing my KZbin videos and they are all digital and at least 1080p in video size.

[@GR..877]

Thanks a lot for this. Is there any way to auto fill gaps after I split/ crop /remove a section ? if not auto a short cut that will join the gap rather than drag it as it keep messing it up when there are several clips and it gets out of order.

[@HayesTech]

I think I go over that in one of my shorter tutorials, made to give a not so long video and break it up into sections. Since I don't use this much any more, and now use DaVinci Resolve, I don't remember this off hand. But I know it it one of the icons, directly above the timeline, that you click on, that enables auto snapping. I'll have to open the program to refresh my memory, ans I'll try to remember to post that here later.

[@HayesTech]

I had to open the program to get it in front of me again... Lol... Yes, I use the mouse for everything I do, and don't use keyboard shortcuts. My stroke brain can't remember all the different shortcuts. But if you highlight the area you want deleted and then right click, the option "ripple delete" is in the drop down. That's how I do it. There isn't a setting to have turned on, above the timeline, that's in DaVinci Resolve. I got the 2 mixed up. Hope this helps.

[@GR..877]

@@HayesTech I will check , I just thought if not a shortcut , a setting to autofill gaps after split, cut remove a section as when you make multiple small edits you need to drag every single section together and it gets messed up. Many others do it auto- But the thing vpad has going for it is the final product file size being around the same size as the original /possible smaller all other the file size will be like 10 x larger after a tiny edit . I will watch more and just learning the effects and settings and can't find much on some of them rather than just try and see -what is the whole delete ripple thing , I thought it would just be to edit audio but it delete all the work I did ! At any rate I will watch more of the videos here. Thanks.

@@GR..877 Yes, that's auto snapping and I'm not sure where that setting would be, other than the ripple delete that I mentioned. I'm so used to using DaVinci now that a lot of NCH I've completely forgotten. That's just the way my brain works since my second stroke.

I had a quick question about your B roll. Say b roll is on track 2 and your main video on track 1. How does it show only track 2 IF Track 1 and 2 are over layed ? Where is the command for that ? How is that done ? IF that IS what a B roll is ? How do you make a B roll segment ?

[@HayesTech]

B-roll is just any video you add to your main video that adds artistic quality to your video. I'm going to do another video on just B-roll soon. As for videos on top of the main video, the video on top will take over anything it's above. Both in video and audio. If you only want the video to show over the main video then shut off the audio to the upper clip. You can also add fade in and fade out transitions to the B-roll. Again, I will be doing another video just on B-roll soon.

When copy/pasting the clip it crops my audio (my song) and i have to reset (or fix it) everytime.
