Click the "+" so it extends the clip on the time line and you can cut the clip in increments of .02 seconds or thereabouts.

I'm working with this technique and also struck out...I imported two one minute clips and and I played around with the timeline and set start trim points and end trim points but didn't figure out how to actually trim the mpg or save it. You mentioned when I import the mpg that Movie Maker breaks it down into many small clips... do I have to change my settings for this? When I import two one minute clips, I only have two clips in my collections....it'd be nice if I could just tweak some settings to turn a 1 minute clip or 10 minute clip into equal 30 second clips and then choose which ones I want to use...but I'm not able to get the smaller ones broke down yet...any follow on advice? I'm really not this retarded, I don't see what I'm doing wrong...I'll continue to work at it...thanks...
