Extra Measure Shows up in Saved midi files

[56_Kruiser]

I posted a 3 minute video on the issue. That'll be easier to understand than a long text message. Seems strange, Title says it, I get a measure that is not in the song put in front of the midi by Cakewalk.

Video on Youtube-> Here

I suspect it will be an easy answer for the folks with more experience than me (that would be pretty much anyone here). 

Appreciate your thoughts and suggestions.

I watched the video and I was wondering where you got all those Windows. Usually, that control is for cycling between open views, such as Track, Staff, Piano Roll, etc. At least, that's what I have always used it for.
Then I thought, "maybe he has more than 1 project open and he's cycling between those open projects".
So, I opened one of my own, went into Preferences and unchecked 'allow only one open project at a time', which is checked by default.
I then opened a few more projects and they all appeared under the Window gadget. 
I believe you are switching between different projects. Is that what you intended?

So I was thinking that maybe you meant to have several open projects and somehow extra time was added to the beginnings of some of them.
I went back to the ones that I did a while ago and no measures were added to their beginnings.
But, I hadn't saved it that way.
