To start using VideoPad Video Editor, the first thing to do is to import your media files into a location called Media Bin.

A click on a link will open the associated web page in your browser. In an effort to make it easier for beginners to use the software, there are several tutorial links accessible from the Video Tutorials tab in the main interface. With so many buttons, icons, panes, and menus, VideoPad Video Editor will probably make users who are not familiar with video editing feel overwhelmed at first sight. VideoPad Video Editor is packed with essential features, and the developer makes sure that even a beginner can use the video editor without having to go through a steep learning curve. With more than 50 effects that you can combine, it is easy to give your video a unique look. Grouping only works on clips on a sequence.For a video editor with so many features, it is easy to think that VideoPad Video Editor is an expensive software, but it can actually be used for free as long as it is not for anything commercial. While linking is used to connect a video clip with its original audio, grouping can be used to connect two or more clips of any type. You can also unlink or relink any (originally linked) clip by selecting it then clicking the Unlink or Relink button in the Clip Preview. To unlink clips on a sequence, select the video clip then select Clip -> Unlink Audio and Video from the menu, or Control-click on either clip and select Unlink from Audio or Unlink from Video. A new audio clip will appear in the Audio Files bin. To unlink the audio from a video clip in a bin, click on the video clip and select Clip -> Unlink Audio and Video from the menu, or Control-click on the clip and select Unlink Audio and Video. This way, the video and audio will stay synchronized. If two clips on a sequence are linked together, moving one clip will cause the other clip to move as well. When the video clip is placed on a sequence, the linked audio is also placed on the sequence, and the two clips remain linked. By default, the audio is linked with the video clip. When a file with both video and audio is added to a project, it is shown as a single video clip in the bin. Editing - Linked and Grouped Clips Linked Clips
