Hello,

How do I decide how much of a clip that is included in a video? It seems that the template (such as "forest" or "dreamer") have predefined lenghts of 4 or 5 seconds. I'd like to include more of each clip in my final movie. How can this be acheived?

Thanks for any advice!

Andreas,
You use the scissor icon under the playing video. This changes the 6 sec box to a sizeable selection up to 60 seconds.
Take a look at this DJI tutorial video and see if it doesn't answer your question.

Hi Terry,

Thanks for replying, unfortunately I believe the scissor is only available when doing "cut to video" form the Original Footage. Even if I select e.g. 15 seconds here I can not use more than 2, 4 or 5 seconds (depending on the theme) in the Create Movie screen. I have attached a screen shot, where you can see the 2" yellow box. I wold like to extend this box to include more of my clip thumb_IMG_0223_1024.jpg

Andreas, have you found out how to do this? I too want to control the length of each segment in my movie.

Unfortunately not, I don't think it is possible. What I do is saving all my clips to the camera roll and put them together in iMovie. (I have an iPhone, if you have another brand I guess there are similar apps also). Good luck

It would be better if we could control the length of the clips...Ed

Yes, we won't able to change the movie length inside DJI Go app. For a single movie creation, the length limit is up to about 30" depending which template we select. If you merge a few video clips into a movie creation then each clip will last merely a few seconds up to 5-6" only.

There many mobile video editing apps we can use such as power director, etc.
