timestretching video clips that:

in QT pro get a clip (say from any audio CD) that is exactly the 
length you want (just set in and out points or shift select the 
duration you need.

edit copy.
file new
paste

you now have a qt movie of the desired target length (ignore for now 
not desired content).

but this to one side.

open your video clip, select all, edit copy.

go to clip A
select all
edit
add scaled (or stretch to selection or whatever it is these days)

your video is now the length (duration) you want.

get movie properties
delete the first track (from the audio cd since you don't want it)
file save as (always save as).

there is a qt movie called time.mov floating around out there, is a 
text track movie and its one purpose is to let you easily do the 
above.
