I'm an old dinasour with Pinnacle..!

However I'm use to capturing from mini DV off my 3ccd agdvc30

Ok...

in Edit mode...click on the box that shows you the time line with all of your video clips. On the top of the time line you can spread out the clips and make them longer ..do this with your mouse..this will allow you to make the adjustment you need.

Wish I was there to help you..hard to help from a computer..

good luck
