Help folks plez. Put together 20 minute still phjoto montage on 1 video track and music on track below. Before rendering I go to put in dissolves with gap wizard and nothing happens. WHat does happen is no dissolves and now the music ends about 5 minutes out of sync with the video. I tried selecting the video and audio trrack and no difference. Before I tried placing the dissolves...I was able to close all gaps without problems using gap wizard... and yes i checked dissolves and gap wizard and correctly entered the dissolve time...however nothing happens.. This should work on 90 still photos... JOHN

Just in case: Select all photos on the track and move them RIGHT a few seconds on the timeline, run Gap wizard again making sure you pick the option to create dissolves, have a proper dissolve time entered, AND uncheck the "maintain existing overlaps" box.

Right-click the first one and use Select Events To End.
