Your decision to get a DVD camcorder instead of a DV camcorder presented certain limitations. I think iDVD expects that each "clip" be an entire "chapter" on the eventual DVD, the way I understand it. And did I say thanks?!Īs for the means to do this, I think maybe I would make "clips" in iMovie and export them for use in iDVD. I'm sure you have seen all of that talk and understand it more than I do. The folks that talk down iMovie 08 act like it is a real deal breaker for them, and that they just use iMovie HD for their stuff. I just really hated losing out on my chapter markings with the output from Toast. There was no difference in file size exporting to DV => it was 5.66GB either way for my 28 minute movie. One thing I saw was that it will de-interlace the video and make it progressive if I want. One thing I did discover is that Toast will take my VIDEO_TS folder and do a LOT of different things with it, so I like having it, especially for things besides making DVDs. I intend on using iDVD 06 or 08 (most people like both) and I wasn't going to Toast things unless there is a compelling reason to do that. I have Toast for those things I need to do besides the basic iDVD. If it's just iLife, that seems fine if it works for what I need.
#Imovie 10 to idvd pro#
ILife 08 AND MPEG-2 component AND QuickTime Pro AND the list might go on. But my main beef was that it kept looking like I needed And yes, I almost got it instead of all of the other options. aYou'll be able to access each title using the chapter skip or menu button on your DVD player's remote control. Set Toast to continuously play from one title to the next so you won't see any break and set Toast's chapter breaks to none. Instead of chapters you can save multiple small movies and add them to Toast (there can be up to 99 titles on a DVD).
Looking at your long list of options I vote for your getting iLife '08 and use the new iMovie. For heaven's sake get the designers to employ some linear logic in their user interfaces.I like iMovie '08. Now, hopefully fixed? But one is never sure now.
#Imovie 10 to idvd upgrade#
Culminating in a recent upgrade to Lion, which promptly rendered many of my favorite applications unusable, including AOL. This is the first time I have had SERIOUS doubts. Where I always tried to persuade users to change to Apple. I have had MACs & PCs since they both came out and have worked for all the major companies in Europe, including US corporations. Where one names an album only to find that it has put the photos in an 'untitled event'? The ridiculous hassle of not being able to import ones own photos - without going through the equally awful iPHOTO. My recent negative experiences of iMovie 11 include: destroying all the quality of my imported video. Stop messing about with basic concepts that lead users by the hand into new products and start getting the basics right. Image if all plumbers had to start calling pipes, 'lines' or carpenters had to call planes 'smoothing irons'? Playing with semantics in a traditional trade or profession is a very dangerous and foolish thing to do. Or previous versions of iMove (except those with this EVENT crap). I never had any trouble with any former editing program, including Final Cut, Adobe or AVID products.
Now one suspects all the effort is going into MOBILE applications. The whole concept is desperately non intuitive.
#Imovie 10 to idvd movie#
Whoever wrote of designed the interface of Movie 11 was never taught logic at school or university. Do you know if now that we have projects sitting in iMovie 11 if they would be downward compatible to iMovie '09 or would we loose all the projects?ģ. Do you know if iMovie '09 will run on Lion? As our company never had any issues with production before using iMove '09 and would be willing to roll back to this version.Ģ.
I see no help from Apple in any of the support forums. Also it's very well documented in the iMovie forums on Apple support. This is 100% consistent across not only my macs but other's in my editing departments as well. Ever since upgrading to Lion on my 27" iMac 2011, a 21.5" iMac 2009, and 20"iMac late 2008 iMovie 11 has a horrible issue with upon export, it comes up with an error message about needing more memory and prompts the user to restart iMovie. I also use iMovie a lot in production of home video tours.
