VirtualDub (64-bit) for Windows

User Reviews

• Very limited usefulness

  spacegiantApril 5, 2013

  Pros

  Easy download Interface appears user friendly

  Cons

  Recognizes limited file types

  Summary

  Basically, I wanted to see if it could enlarge less-than-fullscreen mp4 video to 1600x900 or 1920x1080, or at least to full screen height if it's in a 4:3 aspect ratio. VD does not even recognize mp4... it's compatible with .AVI, .mpeg, and a whole lot of obscure or outdated file extensions, many of which I never even heard of. Same with still images. Plus, it all downloads into a hard-to-find directory, so be sure to create a desktop icon.

• Just what I needed

  GroundedInHellMarch 3, 2012

  Pros

  Detailed, professional level software. You can tell right off the bat that a lot of effort went into creating this software, and that the author intended it to be an effective tool for a wide variety of tasks.

  Cons

  OpenGL Hardware acceleration was turned on by default, which resulted in me not being able to capture video at first. Verbage in the source capture menu seems to imply that if you have a good enough video card (I have Nvidia Geforce 550 Ti) that you can benefit from this feature. Not sure if I was doing something wrong, but I could not capture video with it selected on. My apologies if there is some error on my end that is causing the problem (which is possible as I am not an expert with this stuff).

  Summary

  After being so frustrated by using so many programs that didn't quite cut the mustard and do the job effectively enough, I'm really glad I found this. Hope I can at least repay the author with a case of beer or two someday down the road. If you are trying to convert and manipulate video, and are involved with using opensource products, this is a great tool in your arsenal. Thankyou. It is much appreciated.

• simple yet powerful

  yephickJanuary 1, 2012

  Pros

  Does what I need - simple video processing, *NOT* editing. I wanted to remove a few extra frames from a DV captured video file and this was the only software that let me do what I wanted *AND* didn't re-compress my video to a gigantic size! Has lots of powerful options for advanced users yet keeps it simple for novices (like myself).

  Cons

  Interface could be a bit more intuitive

• Great Product!

  August 20, 2010

  Pros

  Watched a You Tube video that explained how to use this product. I was amazed at how easy it was to use tihs product. Just make sure direct stream copy is checked for both the audio and video. Merges the two videos very quickly.

  Cons

  None that I could find.

  Summary

  If you need to merge two videos, this product will do the trick in very short order. Comes in 32 & 64 bit versions. Best of all, it is free!
