Moving on from MEP 13

Right I know i am slow on the uptake, but when things work i dont like to change. However now i have too.

I have now had a new PC built to my own speck and it works well. I am not using wins 10.

I have loaded my MEP13 plus onto the PC, i have not yet used it, with the exception on a play back of my old built movie clips, which appears to work well, but not yet got to building a new video.

So my question is,

1; How does the old MEP 13 plus work with Wins 10 ?

2; If i were to purchase the new 2021, would i be able to view my old clips made with MEP13 plus ?

3; I did purchase so ad ons such as transitions from catooh, but they appear to have gone, would i be able to get ad ons ?

Thank you.

Thanks for the Media Info on your clips and as suspected the GOP structure M=1 means that there are no B frames which are responsible for the greater complexity of encoding / decoding (leading to increased compression and smaller file sizes). I think camera manufacturers like Canon and DJI are are only using I and P frames to reduce capture processing loads, and with storage cheap and plentiful a higher bitrate file is not a problem. For the same reasons the files are easier to decode / encode in an NLE, so handle better in the edit.
