I think it is worth a try..... Split your video clip on each side of the area where the stills will be. Now...drag the cut portion to the Audio/Music track. BTW...If you wish to add a 5 second still... remove 5 seconds of the video clip. (info below on splitting if you need it) Drag your still shots to the time line and drop them in the location where you removed the video. The Audio clip on the Audio/Music track can be dragged right or left to adjust it's position. More info on splitting.... "Splitting A Clip In MM2.1" Drag the video/audio clip to the Timeline. Play the video/audio by clicking the "Play" button under the view screen. You will see the Playback Indicator (vertical line) advancing across the timeline. Click the "Pause" button at the point where you wish to trim and type... Ctrl+L or click the "Split" button at the bottom of the view screen. (you can also make adjustments by dragging the Playback Indicator) Make as many splits as you want and remove the unwanted clips by right click / delete. And...Movie Maker 2.1 only displays every other frame. In order to see all frames, the following info from PapaJohn may be useful: === Movie Maker 2 shows you every-other-frame when doing project editing. MM1 and Movie Maker in Vista show you each frame. It's usually not a problem when skipping over the in-between frames, but sometimes you notice a flickering frame in a clip that is a 'stray', and you can't see or cut it out. If you apply the Slow - Down - Half video effect to a clip in the timeline, you are then seeing each frame rather than every other one. You can see the problem frame and split it out. Then remove the effect from the clip to return it to normal. -- J.
