How to batch change photo duration

Post by 1fineday »

My VideoStudio 2020 video consists of 30 individual photos on the time line with transitions inbetween each photo. The photos automatically set at 3 seconds each. I need to batch change the photo duration of each photo to 8 seconds. Apart from right clicking on each photo and changing it from the drop down box, is there a process to batch change all the photos at once to 8 seconds each?

VS doesn't support batch processing, but you might find an answer in https://forum.corel.com/viewtopic.php?p=380381

Hi,
You can change the duration of the photos added to the timeline by selecting them all, then go to the "Edit" menu and select "Change Image/Color Duration". You can then change all of the selected pictures to appear for the duration of your choosing.

You don't need to go to the edit menu once you have selected the range, just right click in the timeline and select Change Photo Duration
