This video is very helpful but when i go to cahnge multiple durations it wil not allow me. I believe its due to the fact that it interupts the frames or something like that but im working with over 400 hundred images and cant figure out what to do. Please help asap. thank you very much
Would you mind doing a screen capture so I can see what is going on if possible.
Nice video, this works fine unless I have a video clip (with audio) after a group of photos.
For example, my sequence has 4 photos @ 10 seconds long, then .avi clip(s) with audio following that. When I highlight one photo and change it to 3 seconds, everything is great. If I highlight 2 or more photos and change them to 3 seconds, the video moves left on the timeline as expected, but then the audio remains where it was before the time change, thus out of sync. I’m 99% sure that there is a way to do this, I just don’t know it yet. Any ideas?
Thanks Willy V.

That would be to the timeline only affecting the video side of things, you can simply just move your audio over to stay within the same timeline. Or so long as you do not have any other videos on the same video line for example v1 = images v2 = a video then when you change the duration it will only affect those images but you will still need to move the rest of the timeline over to take away the gap. See image for example
