About VideoPad

VideoPad is a video-making and editing software that helps businesses utilize audio tools and transition effects to design videos on a drag-and-drop interface. It offers a green screen video editing feature, which allows creators to overlay multiple images or clips and apply custom backgrounds to combine them.

The platform enables editors to create personalized video templates and stabilize visuals to eliminate camera shake from video clips. VideoPad allows teams to import music tracks, record narrations, and use built-in sound effects including distortion, choral, and echo to manage audio effects. Operators can also add subtitles and select customizable text, font size, color, and position to edit them.

VideoPad lets businesses fine-tune colors, reverse clips, and speed up or slow down visuals. Managers can also export video files in windows media video (WMV), audio-video interleave (AVI), GIF, MPEG, and other formats.

VideoPad Breakdown

I can make quick music videos with it. My niece has been nagging me to show her how to get into video editing for her YouTube channel and she feels as though this is the software that she is most comfortable with.

Pros

I can edit videos in 3D which brings a new dynamic to your project if you're not used to that. I also found the video stabilization function to be of utmost importance and I'm sure a lot of you aspiring video editors out there will feel the same way too.

Cons

The green screen effect was not as easy to find as I would have wanted it to be. As a matter of fact, I didn't even know the software was capable of that until I stumbled upon it while randomly pressing buttons. So all in all I would like for that feature to be made obvious and easier to set up.

Reasons for Switching to VideoPad

From what I could gather, a lot of people told me for some reason to steer clear of it. So I did.

Endless possibilities in a simple tool

I cannot get enough of this simple and inexpensive tool. I will keep recommending it even when asleep.

Pros

There is a lot good to say about VideoPad. I cannot count how many times I have recommended it for various reasons. It is simple, intuitive, easy to instal and not PC resource hungry. I could write endlessly about its UI, Effects, integration with NCH suite softwares such as WavePad, MixPad and so on. However, my most used feature has been SUBTITLES. VideoPad makes importing, editing and exporting subtitles very easy. It supports the SSA, SRT and VVT files. I have always been able to create new subtitles for translation purposes very easily. The subtitles can be adjusted for specific durations, background and text fonts. Each subtitle can be edited and one can playback and check how they appear till happy with the result.

Cons

The subtitles auto generate is wanting. It often generates a lot of errors which are not worth spending time to correct and it is better to just create a new file from scratch. I think the problem is the Microsoft speech recognizer. May be if VideoPad would allow another speech engine like google things would be better.

Terrible product from the 1980s

Reviewed on 2024/02/27

Pros

Pretty easy to pick up and use. As someone who hasn't edited videos before, I could pick it up quickly.

Cons

Terrible functionality. Videos would behave just fine in Videopad, and then I would open them on YouTube and the audio didn't match the video. I would open previously edited videos later in Videopad, and they would lag, the video would inexplicably be in black and white, and it would be impossible to continue to edit given the quality of the video. NCH software's customer support is non-existent. From the way they run their business, you can tell they haven't updated anything since the 80s.
