Movie Studio 13 Platinum - When I set slide duration to 5 seconds I notice that it doesn't hold. It seems to revert to 2 actual seconds. Anyone else experience this?

When you set the duration time, it also includes overlap time in the calculation.
In my example below, the duration time = 7 seconds and overlap time = 1 second.
Slideshow creator calculates like this:
1 second overlap (transition time) before picture + 5 seconds actual view time + 1 second overlap (transition time) after picture = 7 seconds duration (5 seconds actual duration).

So when you are doing your calculations, you need to add 2x overlap time to the actual duration you want.
I can hear your thoughts right now, and agree that this is confusing.
