Is it possible to slow down the clip and extend it that extra second as a sort of fix?

for sure you can slow-down a clip ... I'm missing your point - why not?? That is 'basics'...-
Another option: re-framing.



here as a KenBurns-pan, but you can pick-up parts of a shot, and create 'two' shots out of it.

or add a freeze to 'stretch' the material.
Titles?
Graphics?
Schematics?
A summarize of 'what happened so far'? ...

Thanks ! I'll try to freeze it for that second and also how would I do that pan or two shot out of one shot process?

In terms of 'you don't know how to handle KB in FCPX?
then ask the Manual
help.apple.com/finalcutpro/mac/10.1/?lang=en#verb8e5de9c


or, in terms of 'I don't like the KB effect'?

... sorry, I'm an old man, I'm not used to those 140characters-only-twitter-lingo ... I little more elaboration avoids my psychic abilities... ;)

'Not the Ken Burns effect' can be construed with 'NOT the Ken Burns effect!' but it's fairly obvious I mean the former!
:)
Thanks for the help, I'll see what this Burns chap has to offer.

By the way how does the Ken Burns effect cover the 1.12 section I need to cover, it seems to only work for the duration of a clip, I have blank space/no video for 1.12 frames.

1. Select the clip you need to extend and press ALT+CMD+UP ARROW to lift it from the primary storyline.

2. Press CMD+R on the selected clip, a green retiming bar will appear on top of the clip.

3. Drag the right side of the retiming bar until the clip is long enough to cover the gap you need to fill.

4. Press ALT+CMD+DOWN ARROW to put the clip back into the primary storyline.

Thanks Ronny, I'm still a little confused ( bare with me I've got sequential dsylexia) , here is a screenshot of my problem, the gap clip is where i'm missing video(damn the Canon mkII!!) but have the audio to cover continuity of meaning underneath. Does your advice still apply?

Hi Sean,

No problem, only intelligent people can have dyslexia :)

Thank you for posting the screenshot, this really helps to see the exact problem.

My advice still applies. But I would need to know if the audio under the MVI 1733 video clip is background audio, or is it directly related to the clip (e.g. the voice of a person you see in the video)?

Voice of the person, hence I'm looking for the lesser of any evils with regard to in some way covering the missing video without recourse to cutaways.

Aha, I understand.

In that case slowing down the video clip will probably cause problems because the separate audio will not be in sync with the video anymore.

You could perhaps make the slide11 clip a bit longer so it covers the gap?

Nothing but the client doesn't want to use slides or cutaways if it can be helped!

You ARE using slides = those screenshot I applied is YOURS! ... :S

Plus, as the audio-tracks indicates, there's a pause in the lecture's audio anyhow ....
.... depends on your dependencies ... but Who's the editor? You or the client?

J- and L-cuts are in 90% better anyhow ........

....... sorry, I'm outta here ...
looks like, we're a talking about a few seconds ... for 2 days now ......

You'll find a solution... or your client will.......... ;)

I'm using slides for cover but the client does not want to use them now, it's fairly simple. Obviously the screenshot is mine(I'm not stupid mate).

If you cannot use anything to cover up that blank space your only solution is to slow down the video clip that is too short, so it covers the gap.
