  Hi Rickysbiz,

  You can try to cut the clip and take a fresh start or endpoint for the clip to set the duration. The start trim point determines when the clip will start playing, and the end trim point determines when the clip stops in your project and final film.

  To trim a video clip

  1. If you are in the Storyboard view, click, and then on the timeline.

  2. in the timeline panel, click the clip you want to cut.

  3 use the controls to play under the preview monitor to find the point where you want to cut out the clip.

  4 follow these steps:

  ·        When the playback indicator is at the location where you want the video or audio clip selected in replay, clickClip and then click TrimBeginning.

  ·        When the playback indicator is at the location where you want the video or audio clip selected to stop playback, clickClip, and then click TrimEnd.

Help is appreciated! Thank you! also, I just noticed that the photos that have a duration of 5 seconds are my digital photos. Photos of the prebious were all scanned and saved on my pc, and they are all 15 seconds duration of peak. Don't know if this has anything to do with it?

• change the time between each photo in movie maker vista

  I am doing a slideshow using vista movie maker. I added music and it is great. BUT I can't change the length of time between each picture and the duration of transitions. I tried tools / options / and I can change out there, but it does not apply to my project. I also tried to do it manually but still no luck.

  Any help would be most appreciated.

  Maybe the following will help:

  The change of setting to: Tools / Options /.
  Advanced... tab applies only to the added photos
  to the timeline * after * you change the setting.

  If you switch to view "Storyboard" and select
  all the pictures in the form of batches (select one and the type...
  CTRL + A)... you can add the 'Speed Up, Double.
  or "Slow down, half" effect of changing the
  duration. Simply select all clips / right click
  the effect on the menu... Choose...
  Add to storyboard table.

  'Speed Up, Double' cuts the duration of half.

  "Slow Down, half ' double life.

  These effects can be added up to six times.

  If you need finer adjustment...
  the info may be useful:

  To the timeline, you can change the
  the duration for each picture manually. Drag the
  Garnish handle left or right to increase or
  reduce the duration. You can see a
  Tip displaying the change.

  Or... just to redo the project after changing
  the long-term: Tools / Options / Advanced
  tab.

  With respect to Transitions, see the following article:

  Windows Movie Maker Vista - add transitions and effects to pictures and
  video in Windows Movie Maker
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/add-transitions-and-effects-to-pictures-and-video-in-Windows-Movie-Maker

  In some cases, you can add a transition
  to every other picture... What follows... explains why:

  This happens when the Transition is
  the same or greater than the length of the photo.
  This setting must be entered before add
  clips on the timeline.

  Tools / Options / Advanced tab.

  To add effects or Transitions to all clips
  at the same time... Follow the following steps:

  Go to the table of Storyboard view.

  Select all images. (click left one)
  and type... CTRL + A).

  With all the images selected... go...
  Transitions video and do a right click the
  You want to add, and then click on...
  Add to storyboard or type table... CTRL + D.

  It also works with the effects.

  Effects...

  The duration of the effects is not adjustable. As a work around
  to extend a fade in from black, you can insert a black solid
  .jpg that you can create in most image editing software.

  (FWIW... the intensity of certain effects can be increased
  If you right click on the picture and choose... Video effects...
  You can add up to 6 cases of effect)

  In Windows Paint (for example)... Open the photo / right click
  the black square in the color box and type... CTRL + SHIFT + N.
  (if you do not see color box... type... CTRL + L)

  (1) to save a photo...
  (2) go to... File / save as...
  (3) select a backup location...
  (4) enter a new name (which guarantees that your original picture is
  not overwritten),
  (5) choose a format...
  (6) left click... Record.

• problem with photo to movie maker

  I get no picture and sound to playback of movie maker. I can see the files when I play in the media player and photo gallery, but not in the movie maker. How can this be repaired?

  It is possible that the file is not compatible with movie maker.
