    Hey I’m pretty new to all this stuff and have been working my way through the tutorials on Video Copilot.net. I tried starting the Light Streaks Tutorial -> https://www.videocopilot.net/tutorials.html?id=42
    Could someone tell me how I change my comp settings so the duration is in Fps instead of Seconds(if that makes sense :S, cos I’m a bit lost. Andrew does the duration at 300fps but i cant seem to figure out how to do this, any help would be much appreciated.

    thanks in advance

    Hold down Control (Command on Mac) and click on time display. Every time you click it will cycle you through three possible formats.

    May I STRONGLY make the suggestion you avoid NEWBIE mistake #1.

    Learn the program before you get distracted by effects and wizbang tutorials.

    If you can’t control the basics of the app… then you will waste countless hours of time and get lost.

    Dig in… start with a beginner book, and learn the basics of comp settings, keyframes, etc.
