SUMMARY
"Default Durations" set for "Image Clips" does not seem to take effect for images added to video time line

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Go to menu Settings->Configure Kdenlive...
2. Change Default Durations for "Image clips" to 00:00:00:01 and hit OK
3. Quit and restart Kdenlive
4. Create new project (1080p 29.97 fps)
5. Drag a .jpg or .png to Project Bin
6. Drag that image from Project Bin down to a timeline, either V2 or V1


OBSERVED RESULT
7. The duration of that image is "00:08:20,16"... an odd number


EXPECTED RESULT
7. The duration of that image should be that of the default


SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

macOS:

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
For all I can tell, Image clips duration refers to when you add an image (as opposed to a video clip, which by itself has a length), by default, how long in the time line it is. The number 00:08:20,16 seems very odd. Changing the "default" to 00:00:01:00 doesnt make a difference either. If "Image clip"'s default does not refer to what I expected, I think having a default for that would be useful too.

I think I'm seeing the same thing.

I installed Kdenlive 20.08.3 on a new computer recently, and I noticed that the default image duration is 10 minutes 30 seconds now for some reason o.o

I tried changing the default image duration per the instructions here: https://kdenlive.org/en/project/configuring-the-default-transition-duration/

But it didn't seem to take any effect.

Just installed and ran 20.12.3. The issue seems to have disappeared (default duration of images apply as expected). I am not sure which exact release the issue went away.
