I have mini-dv tapes and am concerned about long term storage. I want to save the raw footage for future movie projects. How do I get the raw digital video...
You could import the tapes into iMovie or Final Cut Express/Pro, and save them as high-quality Quicktime movie files. Then save the files onto data DVDs. I use...
... It is easy enough to save data files to DVD, but, if you are saving uncompressed video, each tape is going to translate into several DVDs. And although the...
Having had DVDs go bad very quickly, I would retain the tape along with any DVD backups. Keeping all of them cool, dark, and dry should help. The DVD that was...
Something else to consider-- If you had some media that would last for 100 years, would there be any equipment around that could read it in 100 years? You...
Something else to consider... If there is a drop out on a tape, just that piece of the total movie is lost. If the one of the DVDs becomes unreadable of a...
To: iMovie-List@yahoogroups.com Subject: Archiving I have archiveed my finished projects on mini dv ever since I bought my first miniDV camera. I re-loaded one...
I think you have a software problem, not a tape versus DVD archive problem. The original poster wants to just store the raw content of the tapes (without...
I have now shot and edited on iMovie HD several 30 to 60 minute HD videos (travel). With the thought that I may some day be able to get these onto BluRay DVDs,...
Blanks are about $9 for 25GB, but that isn't all that bad @ 36-cents per gig. Problem is, if the original poster is looking to archive the footage for later...
Yes, I can play the tape without any problem. The message I get on my computer is that the tape was an older version and it would be automatically converted to...
... the tape was an older version and it would be automatically converted to the newer version. Now, I'm confused as to what exactly is on that tape. Once you...
Regarding BluRay compression, I had tried to put the hour long HD video on tape a couple of times but both times the video was corrupted. I tried again and...
Capturing from or writing to tape are two activities where you really need to be sure that there is nothing else running that might possibly interfere with the...
Well, I'm not exactly a beginner, having created a couple DVDs before, but this version that I have now ((iDVD '08, version 7.0.2) has me thoroughly confused,...
The drop zones are for clips to play in the menus, not the main movies. When iMovie launched iDVD, it should have created a button in the main menu for the...
I did the editing on iMovie2 and now Iam using Imoviehd5. yes I can't understand it either. some sections are scrambled after reloading and some are not. Help ...
I just got this email invite from Grouply. I, like many others, are against Grouply. I was hoping no more of my yahoogroups mailing lists would be invaded,...
Go to the Grouply page and you'll find links to block your lists from Grouply. Ross Hunter Orange, VA ... -- Dominion Market Research-mailing services for...
I will look into it. I agree the Grouply is basically evil and will discuss it later with our owner (me = lowly moderator) and would be inclined to start...
Dear iMovie-List Members, In the last year it has become increasingly more difficult to keep the list free of spam. Your moderator Patrick Timlin and I have...
OK, so here's the scenario- 3rd grade students on stage singing to "Under the Sea" and "Singin in the Rain". We'd like to find a way to simulate bubbles and...
Since you already have Slick 1-5, try checking out "Drops - Rain Dance" as part of the Slick 3 Video FX. Sounds like that should do the trick for you... steve ...
Slick #3 has some 'bubble' type of effects. iMovie has a built in 'rain' effect. I guess the only way to know if it would work, would be to try and see what it...
I have Perian installed to assist the QT player in playing FLV naturally. Recently it seems the association with flv now brings up Flash Player (a poor...
Thanks for the suggestions, they both worked very well! ... Laurie Yalem Technology Coordinator Churchill Center & School for Learning Disabilities 1021...
