scotchzd72,

Have you found the zoom controls at the bottom right of you window?

This shot is from the old MEP14 which declares at maximum zoom level that a movie can't be bigger then about four and a half hours!

How are you trying to add more? In MEP14 you just double click on a clip in the media pool and it automatically adds to the current end and changes the zoom level to show it as well. Newer versions of MEP have additional options, like trim before adding, but I'm not on my editing machine to check right now. ADDED: And you havn't said which version you are using!

Regards,

Carl
