When I import a video onto FCP, the duration increases. For example, if the video is 16 minutes, it's 17 minutes in FCP. I don't have that problem with audio files, just video files (I use MP4 but I tried other formats too. I didn't change anything with the settings and it suddenly started to do that. I tried on a new macbook, so it's all factory settings and I still have the same problem. Please help =(
MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 11.5
Are you sure you selected the whole duration when adding to the project?
Also: what are clip and the project frame rates?
If the clip is 24fps and the project is 25fps that could explain the discrepancy, as the clip would be slightly sped up.

If you open one of the mp4s in QuickTime player, what does it report for the duration? When you import that mp4 into FCP, what is the duration reported?
The durations on Quicktime Player and the import screen match, but now in the project. I also included the import settings in the pictures. Here are the screenshots:
Call you post some screenshots similar to those that terryb showed?
Yes! The problem was the fps! I never thought about that. I changed the project rate to 25p and now it imports correctly. Thank you so much!
