Windows 10: Windows video editor problems - different video lenght between project library and storyboard

Good morning.


I have Windows 10 64 bits. I am using the windows video editor app.

I imported 2 videos to the project library. I added them to the storyboard and changed their speed and trimmed them to suit what I wanted.


After finishing the project and watching the final cut, I noticed that the second video was too short 0.47 seconds, so I wanted to fix it. Thinking that I might have trimmed it incorrectly I went to the project and storyboard and added from my library the entire video again. This video was about 35 minutes. When I added it again, the storyboard showed the video as it was 0.47 seconds. I checked the speed just in case and it was x1, so it was not accelerated. It was just trimmed. I added the original video to the project library just in case and use it again, but the same thing happened. The video got trimmed to 0.47 seconds once I added it to the storyboard.


I restarted the software to see if that would change anything, but it didn't.


I am not sure what I am doing wrong. If I had to guess, I would say that somehow there was a time limit set for the entire video forcing things to be cut down. But this is not something that happened to me before and I made longer videos with no issue.


Any advice would be greatly welcomed!


Thank you,

Sincerely,


Florencia

Video Editor

I am using MS Video Editor and am working on a project that has both videos and .jpg pics. When I went to open the editor, the project would load, it shows the pics and videos I have loaded into the project, but the Storyboard wouldn't load. It looks
like the app is trying to load the storyboard, but after a few minutes, the app shuts down. I followed the steps online to repair and reset and have now lost my work, but I want to be sure the app is working properly and there are no issues with it before
I start and rebuild the project. Also, the app autosave my work, where does it put the saved Storyboard file?

 

Video Editor

Is there a way to add a sound clip to each individual segment of a storyboard in the video project of windows 10 photos app? Not the way it originally does.

 

My video project in photo app seems corrupt

I have a 50 minute video project containing photos and music. When I open the video project it lists the photos in the project library pane but the storyboard is completely blank.

I regularly use the backup project option thinking that if anything goes wrong, I could revert back to the latest backup but there seems to be no way of opening any of my vpb files. I have not Sync'd to OneDrive preferring to store everything local and using
my preferred cloud backup solution.

Have I lost nearly a weeks work creating this video?
