Hi dj -

There should be no problem doing that. You'd need to have (at least) more than an hour's worth of video clips & photos to start with.

Are you using a trial version or a purchased one. Which version? Which build?

Here's a little tutorial I made about using Magic Movie Wizard - maybe it'll give you some clues... http://www.youtube.com/user/ynotfish77#p/u/38/IL-tNxKDgsE

You really can't change the duration of the movie???

Cheers - Tony

Hi again -

You don't have to place all your clips on the timeline... just in the media library. Make sure you check either (a) Media Library, (b) Timeline or (c) selected items in Magic Movie Wizard.

You MUST have the appropriate amount of media available for PD to use.

Over here - if I have only 3 minutes worth of stuff & ask it to make a 10 minute movie, PD makes a 3 minute movie (even though it allows me to type in 10 minutes).

Cheers - Tony
