Change the end frame of a speed segment
You can change the end frame of a speed segment in the Timeline.

When you drag the retiming handle of a speed segment, you’re adjusting the speed of the
segment, not trimming it. The Change End Source Frame command allows you to trim the end
point (end frame) of a segment.

1

In the Timeline, select a clip that has speed segments.

2

To display the Retime Editor above the clip in the Timeline, choose Show Retime Editor from the

Retime pop-up menu in the toolbar (or press Command-R).

3

Click the triangle next to the speed percentage for a speed segment, and choose Change End

Source Frame from the pop-up menu.

A filmstrip icon appears over the end frame of the speed segment.

4

To change the end frame, drag the filmstrip icon left or right.

As you drag, the Viewer displays the current end frame.

Conform a clip’s speed to match the project’s speed
If you’ve applied speed effects using your camera, the native speed of the source media may
not match the native speed of the source media for the rest of the clips in your project in the
Timeline. However, you can change the clip with the differing native speed to match the rest of
the clips in the Timeline.

1

In the Timeline, select the clip whose speed you want to change to match the rest of the clips in

your project.

2

Choose Conform Speed from the Retime pop-up menu in the toolbar.
