So I have had this bug for so long and I get annoyed when it happens I will get a clip that I want to edit and put it into the playlist it then says it is 77 hours and 44 minutes I then reload it and the same thing happens I copy it and it happens i can watch it at its normal length when I open it on my desktop but it gets glitched on shot cut. Also when I put it into my timeline it crashes PLEASE HELP!!

Not every video can be loaded perfectly. This can happen with a corrupt file. I cannot tell you why it does with one program and not another. Not unless you give me the file. In any case, try this. After you open the file, while it is still in the Source player, click Properties, and edit the Duration. Enter something similar to what another program tells you. The format is in hours:minutes:seconds:frames (HH:MM:SS:FF). It does not need to be exact. You can probably just set frames to 0. Now, add it to the Timeline. It probably crashes because 77 hours is exceeding some numerical limit somewhere in the code.
ok thank you
