Anyone out there know how to do this, I cannot find any global setting to turn this off. This item is part of the multi-side editor, as its name implies once you save your changes in the multi-slide editor it will force all your slides to reduce in length to the video segment of each slide. This is very handy, except in cases where it isn’t. In my project I use a multistate object as a next slide button placed at the end of the video segment. If I don’t remember to untick this reduce slide duration feature, it forces all my carefully placed buttons to the beginning of all slides with multistate video. So, is there a preferences setting anywhere that sets the default for this feature to unchecked, that is turned off unless I tell it otherwise, not the other  way around? Thanks for any advice!!

Adding to my previous answer. Do you not have access to a video editor which allows you to split the big video in smaller clips?

Some important details are missing: which version do you use please?

From your terminoology I suspect it is NOT the most recent version, 11..?1.266. You want to use the synchronized video feature to create individual video clips. But that is totally not the goal: it is meant to distribute over several slides, without the user having the feeling that slides are changing and to decrease the loading time on each slide. You want to give control to the user with buttons to go to a next clip. If you were on CP2019 would suggest to use Interactive video, but need that information first.
