    That’s a dissolve.

    Go to the right hand inspector screen, and find the “effects” tab; look for the “dissolve” icon. Mouse-Drag that icon over to the spot on the timeline where two clips meet, and release.

    Why did you use mpeg (stream clip I assume)? There’s no need to convert the footage to prores first like ancient systems from 2009. But if you want to, just click the optimize checkbox on import. Or you can transcode after the fact in the event viewer by highlighting all or some of the media and right clicking and choosing to transcode.
