Thank you for your interest in Videopad!
We worked hard to get the first version out and we're glad you like it.
Unfortunately we experience some problems with DVD authoring at the moment and we're trying to fix them.
Hopefully we'll have the updated version of Videopad out soon.
Do you have any suggestions on general functionality? What features would you like to see in future releases?
I'd recommend trying very hard to maintain the simplicity that you have achieved in the user interface.
Other video editors I am using have strengths, but generally there is at least one bit of functionality missing, and as well the user interface is often far from intuitive. This is in some instances partly because of the richness of the functionality provided, for example KDENLIVE is quite useful, but I tend to lose untold hours working my way through all of the available functionality to do a simple job. With VideoPad I am delighted that the interface is presented simply and intuitively, for what is a quite rich set of functionality.
The stuff I have done with VideoPad so far has been simple and quick to produce. That's very important for me. If you add DVD Authoring (or provide that through a separate program) that would bring it up to 99% of what I'd ever want out of it. The last 1% for me would be in enhancing the video clips with for eample automatic colour compensation or the like.
I'd be happy to volunteer to bench test a release candidate of future release versions if that would help
