Ken Burn effect suprise

My Ken Burns effect now shows my timeline video in back of my KB crossfades. I suspect that I have changed something basic by mistake, but I cannot find the issue that allows the video to show.

iMac (24-inch, M1, 2021, 2 ports)

Hi, WendyJoseph,


Try deleting/resetting preferences. Open iMovie while holding down the Option and Command keys and select to delete preferences in the box that appears. iMovie will open in a new library. Reopen your old library to get back to your projects. Now see if the Ken Burns effect works properly. Possibly you may need to reboot to set the changes.  Deleting preferences is a safe procedure that will not cause data loss or disruption to your project.


You can also try creating a new project and see if Ken Burns works there.
