PlayPlay allows you to manually adjust your screen’s duration to suit your needs if you find it too short or too long.
Before making any changes, make sure to check whether your screen contains media, and if so, determine whether it’s an image or a video, as the adjustment process will differ depending on the content type.
-
👉 To set the duration of a screen with or without an image
- Click Settings in the Actions menu (the three dots at the top right of the screen form).
-
Then manually enter your desired duration (between 0,16 second and 15 minutes). The selected duration will apply only to this screen.
👉 To set the duration of a screen containing a video
The duration of the screen automatically matches the length of the video segment you’ve selected. For example, if you choose 5 seconds of video, your screen will last 5 seconds.
- Go to your project timeline and, on the relevant screen, adjust the sliders to extend or shorten the duration. For a video, dragging the slider to the left adjusts the starting point, while dragging it to the right adjusts the ending point.
Note: You cannot extend a video beyond its original total duration.
-
Here are the configurations that allow you to adjust the duration in the timeline: screens with no media, images, GIFs, multiple images or GIFs, audio, as well as screens containing a single non-multi-trimmed video.
- If the video added to a screen is not multi-trimmed, you can adjust the screen duration directly in the timeline. However, if the video is multi-trimmed, the screen duration will remain fixed to prevent any conflict with the trim logic.
-
If you add both a video and an image to the same screen, you will be able to adjust the screen duration, but the image duration will remain fixed and cannot be changed.
