Stills Duration
Posted by Steve Tamou on October 15, 2011 at 9:40 pmAm I able to preset the duration of a still that I bring in from the browser? Its coming in at 10 seconds at default. Thank You.

But,
You can double click a still in the sequence and in the window – upper left, duration/timecode – enter new duration.
