Even though the application itself absolutely does what it promises, the 'free for home use' suggestion is not correct. After 30 days you'll have to buy a license or it won't export DVD, MP4 or other formats. Basically that makes it useless unless you pay.

As of June 2021, there is no limitation. You may use the noncommercial free without restriction.

Does not appear to have an android video editor.

Simple, powerful, all-round. A bit slow, however.

Sadly, this application changes your system quite a bit. For example, it associate itself with dat-files. And replacing dat-files icons with it's own. Why in the world would they do this? Dat-files are commonly used among sooo many applications and Windows too!

And you'll get a couple of useless apps installed at the same time you install VideoPad.

The application was a really good alternative for Windows Movie Maker since I wanted something simple but all the extra things is just too much. Choose another product.

I would suggest going with kdenlive witch is free and opensource and has a Windows build since many years now.

It is a simple to understand editor with multi-track compatibility. You can't export to mp4 after the trial expires, but exporting to avi works well enough for my purposes.

Pros

  • 13mb installed (yes, 13mb)
  • open fast, no lags, good for old and bad computers without resources
  • have basic features for a good edit
  • support keyframes (but limited worflow)

Cons

  • the video and effects needs cache into the software to execute completly
  • some simple tasks can be painful (move objects, add effects...), needs to improve some mechanics to be most effective
  • offer other products to make other tasks (i don't like it)

If you have a bad or old computer, or just want do some simple task, go on. But if you want work hard, you need to buy a better computer and try Vegas or Premiere.

yes this is best video editor i ever used with most of basic feature for simple task and multi convert (Adobe premiere cannot do this)

The software comes with an old-school windows GUI, which is a good thing (clean, intuitive, fast to work with, options not hidden). I tried Lightworks first but for an amateur like me its learning curve is super steep; here I was able to do things precisely as I wanted within half an hour: multiple audio and video tracks, effects timed by keypoints, trimming of tracks,... For non-professional use recommended!

What is VideoPad?

VideoPad is a video editing software that allows users to create movie projects from various video clips or a single video file. It supports multiple audio and video file formats and offers a range of transitions and effects, including a fade transition. Users can preview effects in real time and adjust their duration. VideoPad also provides video optimization tools for parameters like brightness, saturation, and color, and allows the addition of photos, images, and text captions to clips.

The software includes audio tools to add music tracks to a video, record or import narrations. Once a video project is finished, users can share it through various mediums, burn it to a DVD, display it on devices like PSP, iPod, iPhone, mobile phones or Pocket PC, or burn HD DVDs and Blu-Ray Discs. Video files can also be shared online.

VideoPad offers a free version for non-commercial use, while a professional version with extra formats and features is available from NCH Software.
