I can't do it for some reason... The clips i want to speed up are long, (about an hour) would that have anything to do with it? But anyway, I saw this one guide that says iMovie may have to convert the clip before you can speed it up, but I don't even have the option to do that. Would a screencap help?

Here's one if you need it;

I'd really appreciate some help.

No, if the clip is already playable in iMovie, then all you have to do is select it, open the video inspector ("v" key as a shortcut), choose "Clip" and set the speed.

It didn't work.

I still couldn't get it to show up. It'll play, but I can't get the speed adjustment bar to show up. D:

See?

You are looking at clips in your EVENT library. You will only get the window I posted when you are actually editing a PROJECT.
