HI,
I have been using the trial now for a couple days, I am pretty impressed with the outcome, however every time I run my file through the frame rate changes on me, it has done this twice to me now, why is VE doing this? I am feeding it a 720x480 Lagarith lossless avi file @ 23.976 FPS and when finished the FPS is like 23.810, this is pretty much holding me back from purchasing so far, plus I was wondering, I asked this in a different thread as well, but is this program better or the same as the VDub plugin you offer?
Thanks for your time

Video Enhancer tries to work with every possible input format (using installed codecs) and many formats do not have a notion of constant frame rate, so VE has to guess the frame rate from first 20-30 frames. Lagarith codec uses null frames which can influence this process and lead to errors in frame rate detection. Disabling null frames in Lagarith's settings may help. In next release we'll make frame rate handling more precise by reading the source frame rate value where possible.

I will try what you said, but in the meantime will Huffy codec be better or the same result will happen? also how long until this new update you mentioned? because if it keeps changing frame rate it is kind of useless, really good results but losing FPS is a bad thing.

Huffyuv might be better regarding frame rate.
Next release somewhere in March, I guess.

So what other additions will there be in the March release besides handling the frame rate better and YV12 support? also when I buy this how long can I get updates? or do I have to buy all the updates?

Full set of features for 1.9.7 is not decided yet, here are some parts:
* better handling different input formats
* WMV output
* jobs (deferred processing tasks, as in VirtualDub)
* some UI improvements
Current policy is that all customers of version 1.* get updates to all 1.* versions for free. All previous updates were free. Version 2.0 is still in quite distant future.

I have not tried your suggestion yet, I am hoping to some time today, but wanted to know, do you think it would be better to upscale the video with the black bars trimmed off the file, or does it make a difference? I was curious if I should trim off and upscale image only then put my black borders on afterwards.

If you want black bars in the final video, then just keep them, no need to trim. By trimming you can probably make SR work a bit faster (less image area to process) but the difference in speed will not be so big.
