Yes someone was at my house, I described what was happening and he explained that likely I had extra video “hidden” by the in and out points and when I dragged the effect pulled out that hidden footage.
I was confused reading about “Handles” that terminology really does not make itself naturally clear.
“enough time (handles) on the ends of both clips ”
This made the rest of what I read understandable.
Thanks
Even better news, I work in back pain and this guy has back pain so I showed him my poorly edited DVD which is an experience of my groundbreaking work in permanent back pain relief and he loves my work and is taking over the video editing. (*o*)/ banzai
