Movie Studio Platinum 13 (878) New user here, I did a quick search but didn't see what I'm looking for.

I am using a still image at the beginning of several video clips. The default display time for the still images is 5 seconds. I would like the display time to be 1 second. Is there a way to do this when adding the media? Right now I am going through each 1 & dragging the slider down to -4.00.

This is very time consuming since I then have to manually move each still & video to the end of the timeline.

If there is a way to create a still frame from the video clips that I can add a graphic or spot shadow to that might be easier than using stills that I created & edited in a different software.

Thanks!
