Hi folks,

I'm using VDub 1.5.10, and there's a feature I really would like to see, it seems so useful that it might be available but I don't know how to do it : when you put a job in the job list, there's no way I can reopen it in VDub.
I know you can save all processing setting BEFORE you put a job in the job list, but usually, after a job is done, this is where I might want to modifiy it, and it's too late... or not ?

Thanks for any help,
Djidjo

You can edit the *.jobs file in the VirtualDub folder with a text editor and copy and save a single job to another .jobs (or .vcf) file.

Remove these lines first:

VirtualDub.SaveAVI("F:\\filename.avi");
VirtualDub.Close();

But copy and save everything else between these lines:

// $job "Job 1"
.
.
.
// $endjob


Then you are ready to open the saved job in VirtualDub.

I'll try it when I'm back home. Thanks !

PS : I still think that's a pity there's no "reopen job" button in VDUB, because it would be quite easy to do.
