@KeishaMcClain I sounds like you might dealing with VFR footage, but not sure on that. Using a free program download called MediaInfo and copying and pasting a text report here of your results will help us to determine that. You can find the MediaInfo here:

and this is a video that explains how to use it:

If you do have VFR instead of CFR (Constant Frame Rate) then you will need to transcode it (convert it) to get optimum usage in Hitfilm and other NLE (Non Linear Editing) editors. These might help with a more detailed explanation:

Handbrake is also a free program and can be found here:

Hope this helps you out.

Oh, I forgot to mention you should also list the specs of your computer system CPU, GPU RAM, OS etc to help in diagnosing a possible problem.
