Interesting review, especially the last few paragraphs. iMovie '09 has caught up with iMovie HD and surpassed it in features and performance. There are enough...
... Thanks for the link Shirley. I found the review very encouraging. I am STILL running iMovie v4 on an old eMac and expect to be upgrading to a new iMac this...

This is a blatant attempt to sell this reviewers books. Jeff Carlson is the author of the forthcoming iMovie ’09 & iDVD: Visual QuickStart Guide (Peachpit...
Surely the key issue must be the quality of the finished video. I am concerned about what is said about this: that it cannot cope with interlaced video, deals...
Here's the quote: "The way iMovie ’09 handles video internally is mostly unchanged from the previous version: interlaced DV and HDV footage use single-field ...

... I think that the key phrase here is "handles video _internally_". I believe that the performance/quality tradeoff that Jeff talks about is relevant only...
I have just completed a video in which I have edited footage I have taken of my son's driving experience (from miniDVD tape) with footage from a camera inside...
Was the car footage converted to DV before the import to iMovie? If not, try that. Just make a quick test using one clip of each and go to DVD to test this...
Hi Mike, Yes, the video was converted to VD using streamclip before importing to imovie. This fix doesn't seem to do the trick. Any other thoughts? Thanks, ...
Robert, All I can think of is a bit of troubleshooting. To determine if something went awry in the original project, you could try this; Open a new project and...
Open the different clips (prior to the import to iM) in QuickTime and checks the specs to make sure they are identical for the different sources (audio too)....
There is still ambiguity in my mind about the capture medium. The original posting said "miniDVD tape." Probably, that should be either "miniDV tape" or...
I like the suggestion given to determine what format of DV Streamclip exported as (due to the default settings), determining what the end DV format was...
I have a bunch of old VCR recordings that I'd like to transfer to digital storage so I can get rid of the machines and the tapes. Does anyone know of a good...
I purchased a Dazzle Hollywood Bridge a couple of years ago and it has worked great. I don't recall it being very expensive (eBay?). rn On Feb 16, 2009, at...
This is what I've seen recommended the most on this list. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000GJVE8M Certainly there are cheaper ones (like Dazzle), but it...
To elaborate on Shirley's comment- If you have a digital camcorder with "pass-through mode", you can use it to capture your video. Connect your VCR output to...
While I have heard horror stories about the Hollywood Dazzle, the one that I have has worked with very few problems. But if you already have a camcorder, using...
As requested, here are the details: The in-car video came to me on a DVD disc which quicktime tells me is: " MPEG2 Muxed, 720 x 540 pixels. FPS 25" The other...
I've taken Shirley's advice (Wed Feb 11, 2009 1:04 pm) and posted a question on the Macworld site. No reply as yet, but I await with interest! Robert...
As an aside, I googled 'mini DVD tape' and actually found a web page that uses this term twice. http://www.camcor.com/cgi-bin/cat/id=1148396666&fg=133419155 ...
