Clip / Trim several imported pictures from a digi camera

[Guest]

Hi All,

Making an animiation movie and came across this issue;

I have taken several (100's) of pictures on my digi camera.

I have imprted them into movie maker, but each picture is 3 seconds long.

Is there anyway of trimmming all the images back to 1 second or do I have to
trim each one, one at a time?

Many thanks for your help

change the picture duration option to 1 second before dragging them to the
timeline.... Tools > Options > Advanced tab > Picture duration

it won't change those you already have in a project, but it'll be your new
default setting until you change it again

There is no way to auto trim them after they have been placed on the
timeline. It would be easier if you make another project but before you
place them on the timeline, change the default picture duration to 1 sec
from Tools->Options->Advaced. This duration will be used for any picture you
place to the timeline/storyboard afterwards.
