Export stops at 32,6% every time

[deleted]

I created a project with an older version of VP (8.45, I think), then updated the program and opened the old project. When exporting this into a video, the program stops at "indexing...32,7%" and starts again from zero. This loops continues ad infinitum. What have I done wrong and how can I fix it? 🙁

What version of Videopad is being used? Try this one and report back. Ignore any virus warnings.

Yes, I am now using the latest one, 13.67.

But is it the linked 64-bit release, which can better handle complex or lengthy projects?

Share the project and we'll check it out. That's the best way to pin down issues like this.

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, right-click it and click SHARE. 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.

I was just going to say that I can't upload the entire files, because it's about 50gb, but it seems I found a solution to the problem by accident: Starting the preview inside the program before exporting seems to have fixed it.

Thank you, borate, for trying to help me!

Use the 64-bit release for large projects, and perhaps break them into smaller, exported projects - to be assembled as the final, later.
