Trimming video clips

[martzae]

I am attempting to add varied length clips, ie .50, .71 but when I adjust length it jumps from .29 secs to 1 sec. Is there a way to set more accurate lengths? 
Thank you!

Hi there!

Thanks for writing in. Could you provide the screen recording of what exactly is happening?

Let us know.

yes!!!  I attached a sample video I was trying to cut to 0.75 and it jumps from 0.29 to 1.

I am having the same problem. It will not let me set the length of a still photo clip for less than 1 second. If I edit the speed of a clip to make it 0.30 seconds, when I click away, it reverts to 1 second.

It seems like for some reason Adobe divides seconds into integrals of 30, not 100. So if you are trying to cut a clip to 0.8 seconds, you have to multiply 0.8 x 30 to get four-fifths (0.8) of a second. It is really annoying - especially if you are editing to sync to music.

Ok. That's exactly what I was trying to do. Thank you! I wish there was a way to break it down further without doing math problems😂
