imovie issue on ipad

My iMovie videos are no longer running from scene to scene. The music is playing, but the movie isn’t playing. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

iPad, iPadOS 18

Hi,


Assuing that your iMovie project contains only photos, it's a bug that Apple will need to address. Meanwhile, you can unfreeze it by adding a short video anywhere in the timeline. Retain the video until you are finished editing. Then you can delete the video before exporting out the project as a video file.
