Hi guys, I'm using Imovie 9, works fine.

My friend is here with Imovie 11.

When we choose clip duration, it won't allow us to choose the right duration.

I put in 14 on mine, I get 14 seconds, he put 14 in on his... he get 9:57

***?

How can we just choose seconds...

we tried

14:00, 14.00, .14...

Nothing works....

Hi

I read this threat as it's my problem too. I have iMovie 9 and cannot totally control the duration of my clip. When I move on to another, a previous one changes to whatever it likes!! It's so random!! And so annoying. Can you please tell me how I can totally 'Anchor' my clip to be 'Excatly' the length I'd like it to be please. Appreciate your help, thanks.
