Long blank space at end of video

[Rockc1ty]

Hi Guys,
You got me on track several months ago and haven't needed your help again till now.
Corel VideoStudio 2021 Ultimate - I did a 9 minute video but it rendered to over an hour. Long black blank space at the end. I searched but could not find any stray clips. Also searched the forums for solutions, no luck. Probably something very simple. Help?
Thanks -

I know you say you searched and couldn't find anything. Can we assume you also searched in overlay tracks? Sometimes the stray clip can be only a frame or two long, and that would not be readily visible when you have the timeline at its usual size. But if you can extend the timeline to, say, frame by frame view, and check at the very end of that long blank space, does anything now show in any of the tracks?

I will look, thank you.

Ken I don't see it. Plus sign all the way on the zoom tool. Looking at all tracks, including overlays. I must be missing something.

Try hitting the end key which will take you to the end of the VSP and there you should find why your VSP is an hour long.

Of course the other option is to create a preview range that ends at the 9 minute mark and only render that range.

Thanks Tletter will try that. Full disclosure, I did have my end clip hung out at the far right of timeline, for use at the end. Maybe what caused my issues. I messed around with the yellow handles, but did not help.

End key takes me to 9:31:48 which is accurate. Still big blank space at the end. I will try the preview range now.

Preview range render was perfect workaround. You guys are great! I will avoid dragging clips over to the far right in the future. I really appreciate your quick and accurate responses. https://www.youtube.com/MyFingerLakesRailwayLayout
