This is my first time trying the technique of working with multiple timelines, one for each segment of an interview. in compiling my main edit, adding each timeline/segment sequentially, for some reason I am not able to apply a video transition between each segment. I click and drag it over the edit spot where I want to insert it, but it doesn't get accepted. I would appreciate some help in understanding why that is, and what the solution would be.

Many thanks!

You need overlapping frames for the transition to work within eg for a 1 second transition you would need 1 second of overlapping frames.

This is a rough video I made some time ago (I really must update it) about transitions. It may help.
