Question

How do I set an end point for my video?

I'm using Adobe Premiere Pro 2025. My first video is supposed to end at 00:01:43, but it keeps going, showing nothing but a black background. I set beginning and end points by pressing I and O. I used a razor to cut and delete the "phantom sequences" that displayed in my Master sequence.

I asked ChatGPT for help and it referred me to an endless list of things Adobe Premiere apparently doesn't have - Sequence > Markers, Sequence > Work Area Bar, and on and on. I can't find any of them.

Is there another software program I can import my video into and trim it?

That's simply a user knowledge issue. As of course  it is easily done in Premiere. As far as export is concerned.

 

There's no reason I can think of in general use to have an "end" stop point on a sequence. Who knows when you're done adding media, graphics or such.

Everyone's mileage always varies ...

Who knows when I'm done adding media, graphics, etc.? I know, and I. would assume the software would know. But if it doesn't, and adding end points doesn't work, then I guess I'm out of luck. Fortunately, I was able to edit it in another software program.

Not many are struggling with that issue. I'm glad you found something to do what you want, and that 'would know' when you want it to end.

Sorry, I posted too soon. I already found another program that allowed me to trim off the extra stuff. Thanks.
