Hello,
I don't know if it will fix the problem (especially considering VLC cannot play the video) but the experimental versions have an updated decoding library. They also have the logs in debug mode so it will be more helpful.
If it still doesn't work, can you get a failing sample of manageable size ?

Re: codec troubles with .mp4 files (8 replies, posted in Bug reports)
Hi, thanks for the sample. I can read it with version 0.8.7.
There is no codec to install that can help with this problem, it's the decoding library that must be fixed (similar to VLC)…
user "haeferl" on the forum sent me a video with a similar issue a while ago (also ski jumping), maybe they come from the same samsung camera ?
Anyway, I still need to report this to FFmpeg for more information.
It corresponds to bug 209.

Re: A second combined video split - stacked? (6 replies, posted in General)
Ah, sorry I misunderstood. You are referring to the workspace organisation of screens ?
Now that is another story 
I guess it would be better to have the key images on the side with such a setting…
4-screen organisation is not currently part of the plan. I'm not convinced that anyone can actually watch 4 videos at the same time, and it would be super hard to manage while keeping some of the existing functionality like synchronization. Forcing 2-screens has made possible a number of shortcuts and simplifications and allowed focusing on doing more basic stuff better.

Re: A second combined video split - stacked? (6 replies, posted in General)
Dual export, but created file has original videos placed top/bottom instead of left/right.
It is certainly possible technically, but where to place the setting ?
- In the general preferences : it would be hidden and few persons would ever know about it.
- In a dialog just before the file name dialog : it may disrupt the flow for persons always using the default option.
- Elsewhere ?

There might still be extra logs. Go to the logs folder and look for files named "Unhandled crash" something.

Re: Slow motion playback of Captured Buffered Video. (5 replies, posted in General)
I didn't even know such splitting tool existed ! Could have saved me a few bucks when I first worked on the dual capture screen, instead of buying a cheapo webcam 
@splatent: Note that there is a bug when using the two capture screens view. You need to go to menu Options > Preferences > Playback and decrease the ammount of memory (second slider) to something like 300/400MB. Otherwise you might get a crash (actual RAM you have is irrelevant).
Also, the current design is to record exactly what happens on screen, so the ability to browse the recently captured event while still capturing in the background is not considered for now.

Re: insert still photo (18 replies, posted in General)
Say I have two videos in sync and added such a "video" insert tool.
- I can press play on common controls : both the main video and the insert play in sync.
- I can pause the main video and browse the second one : I stay on the same frame of the main video while the insert is animated.
(Maybe the insert itself can have small frame by frame controls to go back and forth.)
Second scenario is what you describe, right ?
With this type of tool, I don't see how the blend mode (overlaying on the full image) could be of any use (anything it does could be emulated with this).
edit:
Oh maybe you meant to create several image insert on a single frame of the other video ?

Re: insert still photo (18 replies, posted in General)
Thanks for the feedback and even more ideas !
First of all, I think this will only be considered for later integration. I feel the current image/svg tool to be "good enough" for a formal release, so I'd like to wrap up the capture screen and publish a formal version for the general public.
Regarding sending a sequence of pictures, it is something that crossed my mind too. Seeing this image standing there coming from the other video, I'm tempted to click play on it to see what happens next
But there is a convergence between this and the blending mode. And it will be confusing to have two completely different tool serving the same purpose.
This will need to be thought over to see what can be done.
Maybe when the "aligned merge" function is in place the blending mode can be removed completely, and the image tool enhanced to allow for "Send video to the other screen", where instead of overlaying the video on top of the other at 50% opacity, we put it in a small - resizable insert. (In that case you'd have to keep both screens open)…

Has anybody more values to choose?
I have found the origin of this issue, but it is in external code. It will get fixed eventually, but not in the very next version.
It might impact other cameras too : only one configuration per image size is visible.
After all Andrew from AForge (library used in Kinovea for DirectShow capture and image filters) has reacted super fast to my query and included the change 
So in 0.8.13, the configuration page should now display all the possible options, even if there are several frame rates for a single resolution.

Topic: Experimental version - 0.8.13 (10 replies, posted in General)
This is an experimental version : it needs your feedback to improve.
The installer is available here: [s]Kinovea.Setup.0.8.13[/s] - Go to Kinovea.0.8.14
The main improvement comes from the "Observational reference" department.
- The whole area can now be used to move objects around (previously you had to grab them exactly by the lines or drawn areas)
- They are loaded resized to 75% of the image height to ensure they fit in.
- New "Import image…" menu to create a reference from an existing image or svg file.
- When in dual playback, you can "Send image to the other video" to create a reference on the fly.
- The master opacity of the image or drawing can be tuned.
Other changes includes the thumbnails on the main window, see snapshot below.
Fixed bugs : 233, 234, 236.
changelog.
Image tool in action on triple jumper Christian Olsson. (I saved 2 key images to files and loaded them again as references)
New thumbnail

Re: Slow motion playback of Captured Buffered Video. (5 replies, posted in General)
Hello,
What you can do for starters is use the "Play/Pause" button on the camera screen (next to configure), this will freeze the capture buffer.
Then use the delay slider to navigate in the live frames recently captured.
