I just had a first look at iMovie - bad impression. First, it wants you to
"import" media, it doesn't seem able to just work with media where
they are already located: I hate that. Second, it apparently doesn't even
recognize the AVI movies my digital camera produces, meaning I'd have to convert
them to "something else" (whatever that is) with another application
before being able to do anything at all with them in iMovie. This goes back to
the back burner for when nothing else works, then.
@marjoleink:
Ur camera obviously compresses the video files before u can use them, get a better camera.
However the old iMovie HD is better
Very easy to use and it works.

Very good program much better than the old version MUCH.
Thanks finalcut team for this new version... much better than the old one...
i'm not much of a video guy but it looks way more powerful than the old imovie. love the 'skimming' of clips in your library.
