okay; now i feel better. i thought i was missing something. when trying to get the hang of adding the title and music i did it without a video clip in there and the audio shut off at the end of the time i had set for the title. then just need to edit the audio clip and then play it in iTunes so iMovie can find it. thanks so much. now, how about where do you post them? got any advice on adding the video to a podcast? take care, max On Jun 9, 2012, at 8:26 PM, Blinkin wrote:
