Microsoft Movie Maker - cannot change the length of each clip.

Cannot change the length of each clip on Microsoft Movie Maker.

I clicked on 'tools', then 'options' in Microsoft Movie Maker after importing my media and organize my clips as the way I would like it. When I then click on the "Advanced" tab, image duration shows only 5 seconds with the transition period only 1.25 seconds, which is the default setting and that is also what I want. However, when I play my project in Movie Maker, it accelerates through each clip. I also noticed that when I press the title of 'Clip' in my headings at the top left and then click on 'Properties', the duration of each clip shows that only 00:02 seconds. Which is why my speed clips too quickly.

I would have thought that setting my time of duration in the Tools section would then set in the Clips section, but this is obniously does not. I don't understand why everyone would show differently and wonder if you can help me to slow down the speed that my movie is playing.

Thank you

all of the clips as a batch (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:

You can change the duration for each clip
manually. Move your pointer autour the
edge of an element until you see a double red
arrow. Now, drag the double red arrow...
you will see if show a ToolTip displays the duration
train to change.

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

  • Cannot change the length of the slide in simulation software

    I use 7 Captivate for the first time. I had a version much older, but rarely used.

    I recorded a simple software simulation which should be a piece of cake, to edit and produce, but do you have a problem I do not know how to solve. Simulation includes a component screen is clicked, then slipped and fell into a new location. I can't change the length of the slide that shows the movement of drag - move. It has a length of 6.5 seconds, which is painfully and excessively slow and there is no way I can find to shorten.

    I can't drag the end of the slide on the timeline, right click did not produce anything that is promising in the pop-up menus and the Properties Panel has a field of time, but when I select the 6.5 seconds and change, it is just 6.5 seconds immediately after.

    I remember this kind of thing being very simple in previous versions of Captivate. No more, I guess...

    Thank you

    -Jennifer

    Hello

    Could check you this slide, has created a video demonstration for this slide, because default recording demo Captivate 7 creates the video demo for drag-and - drop and mouse wheel actions.

    If it has been registered as a video demo, it will show as a red line BarrΘ in the chronology of this slide. The duration of the demonstration video can be increasedbut cannot be decreased.

    Thank you.

  • You cannot change the length of the transition from photo album

    Does anyone know why I can't change the length of one of the album transitions four other than 16 frames photo?  The transition moves way to fast to a half second really give me the effect I was hoping.  Working with fcpx 10.2.3.  Running on an iMac, El Capitan, 10.11.3.  Any thoughts?

    The duration of the transition is controlled by the amount of available handles extra beyond the edit point. To increase the duration, you may have the trim, the shots to put at the disposal of the media more. Hand and waving of the Edit with the tab at the top of the transition point.

  • Plugin entry hidden - cannot change the length

    I use a lot the hidden plugin. But the strange thing is that it doesn't have a "length" field, so by default at 30. In order to change the length, I have to change to a text field, and then change the length (for example, of the 15 for the phone number) and then to change the return type of entry hidden. The length is then shorten.

    The masked input plugin can be modified to include the length field? It always seems to use it.

    Hi Robert,.

    Are you talking about the duration of the field or the number of characters that can be entered.
    Do not have access to the source code now from my iPad, but in the definition of plugin you can check if the checkbox for the width of the field (don't remember the exact name) in the standard attributes area is checked.

    You have downloaded the plugin from http://apex.oracle.com/plugins or use the copy of the sample application?

  • How to set the length of each clip?

    I started trying to build a video with first items 10

    I created a lot of videos with Windows Movie Maker... it is annoying for effects etc.that why I have this new software.

    Now my question is. . How can I set the time for each clip?

    I would like to add a video that goes with each lyric in the song.

    Thank you.

    Welcome to the forum.

    As Steve, who is "change."

    We can use one of the two tools in pre, to cut out the Clip function.

    First of all, we can Dbl-Click on the item in the project Panel to open it in the Source monitor, which looks a bit like in the program monitor, but there the settings In & Out Point. When this Clip has been truncated as needed in the Source monitor, just drag it to the timeline.

    Alternatively, one can drag the Clip to the timeline, then click on + drag on the head of the clip to set the In Point and on the tail, to set the out Point.

    Good luck

  • Movie Maker cannot open the AVI file!

    I took a video. MOV format and converted to AVI, PAL but when I try to import into Movie Maker, it opens, indicating that the required codec is not installed. I thought that AVI files were specific Microsoft and should not need to have any other codecs or I'm completely wrong. Any suggestion would be appreciated. I have Windows XP and run; could not tell what version of Movie Maker I have but it dates back to 2006. Thank you very much.
