Question

Extend duration of title slide and overwrite video but keep audio.....

Likely a complicated one this one.... and may not be possible... but here goes!

 

I have downloaded a file of the old "Pearl and Dean" music..

When i play it on my project it also shows the graphic with the  "Pearl and Dean" name and the asteroids...

For anyone who doest know it, here it is: https://youtu.be/WUFxARB880E

 

Ideally I would like to edit the movie so instead of the words "PEARL & DEAN", change to something else.... but this i feel is too tricky to do....

 

In absence of that, what I would like to do is remove the video attached to the music, replace it with my own title slide and extend the duration of title slide to the duration (which is 18 seconds).

I've not found a way to extend title slides, i have managed to shorten them by using the scissors.

 

Attaching a screnshot for context.

Any advice appreciated!

If the title is permanently part of the original video, you won't be able to edit it, of course.

 

You can on the other hand unlink the audio and video for this video and delete the video only for the title segment and create your own titles from scratch. Is that what you're trying to do?

Thanks Steve

 

Yes that's exactly what I want to do- unlink them then add my own title slide.

 

The issue is then that the audio is 18 seconds and I can't find a way to stretch a title slide to that length.

 

thanks!

Assuming you're using version 2025 of the program, you're right. The title template are of a fixed duration. 

 

But you should be able to create your own titles from scratch using the title tool on the shortcut bar in the left side of the timeline.
