I bought the training video and found that it is static, cannot be moved around or resized and takes up almost the entire screen - so, you can't open FC to work with the training demos - help!

@boalohanuiloa You have to convert the footage via MPEG Streamclip (I don't remember the format), there are tutorials on YouTube.

I need help, maybe someone on youtube can help me? I burned a movie from FCE to dvd and my slow-motion and fast-motion on the dvd is really screwed up. Does anyone know how to fix this problem? Your help is very much appreciated
