extend video a few more seconds
Oct 10, 2014
I have a video as one slide in Storyline1. I needed to split the video because I needed more time between some of the mouse movements. I made a copy of the video and split it where I needed the extra space. I'm trying to learn how to extend the first section of the video to play a couple of seconds longer at the same spot where it ends. Example- I split the video at 16 seconds, the original video is for 1-16 seconds, the 2nd video is from 16-35 seconds. I need the first video to continue to show its ending view for 3 more seconds, and I will move the 2nd video to not begin until 19 seconds on the timeline. Is there a way to extend the length of the 1st original clip without it picking up the next few seconds of the original video clip?

Hi Michele,
Not sure if this will work for you, but I've used this technique in the past to extend the time between two video clips:
Good Luck!

overlay the two videos, set the first one at the bottom and set to always show on timeline, set the 2nd video to start at 19 seconds
Thanks, Nelson. I really thought that was going to be my solution. Unfortunately when I save as picture it is capturing the image from the beginning of the video and not the end.
Phil, I tried your suggestion as well but that is not giving me the extended 3 seconds on the first video.
Since the website used in the video changed the data from me doing the case example, my original data is changed so I'm unable to just re-record.
I got it to work. I right clicked on the first video in the timeline and selected timing, and changed the duration to add 3 seconds. This did show the last 3 seconds at the same point as the 16 second mark, similar to a pause in one spot, which is exactly what I needed.
Glad that you were able to get the assistance that you needed here Michele and thanks for popping back in with an update
