I have clip (Pro res 422) that is 10min 25 sec long. So it plays in Quicktime, so it shows in FCPX Browser. As soon as I drag this clip in the timeline it only has 10 min!!? Where are the 25 sec gone I can not find them and the clip is complete. When I render it out as master clip it becomes exactly 10min 0 sec! Any idea what is going on here.... the problem is I NEED that clip to be 10.25min Never had this before...
Please help

CCan you post a screen shot of the timeline when you share it?
Sorry can't do, it is a new product for a client ...
Right click your clip in the Browser and choose open in timeline. What's the duration? Share Master File (what is the duration in the Settings Dialog?). Share and open in QT; now what's the duration?

Hi Russ,
that is strange as I right click and open the same clip in a new timeline, everything is fine, BUT when I try to move the clip to the timeline where I need it it shrinks again....It shows everywhere duration 10.25 except in the timeline where I need it.....there it is 10.00....
You are editing into a project not into a clip in the timeline?
Are the frame rates of the clip and the timeline the same?

Yes, doing that since over 12 years.. Before FCPX with FCP....

Yes, sure-- always with the same equipment, and by the way the clip was rendered out with Resolve like we do it always. ... Never had this before-- just thought that it had to do with us being on OS X 10.10.3 already, but I can not reproduce it with any other clip...
SOftware prior to FCPX did not allow you to open a clip in the timeline.

It really would help to see a screenshot.
If you open the clip appearance pop up in the lower right corner of the project widow and select the two options indicated by the arrow, I wouldn't think you will be disclosing very much about this project that anyone would regard as sensitive.

Sorry what do you mean? Where?
To change the clip appearance, click the button at the bottom right of the timeline. The first option show only audio waveforms and not video thumbnails.
Alternately, make your screenshot normally with Cmd-Shift-4 and then open the file in Preview and cover any sensitive material. Use the rectangle tool.
You may end up with something like this:
I need help, I think I'm getting crazy
