Bring QuickTime-playable clips directly into iMovie
Import DV files into iMovie more quickly
Importing DV files into iMovie can take quite a while, even though iMovie uses DV as its native format, and no conversion is needed. A quicker way to do this is to create a new iMovie project and the close it again. Locate the project file you just created, Control-click it and choose Show Package Contents. This will open in a new window with some folders. Drag your DV footage into the folder named Media and close the window. Now, double-click the iMovie project file to open it. iMovie will open and then prompt you about some stray file; select View Trash. Then simply drag the clips to the media pane. This is very useful for users who have non-mini-DV camcorders who have to manually convert and then import their clips.Bring QuickTime-playable clips directly into iMovie
When trying to use video clips in iMovie that have not been imported from a video camera directly into the program (such as divx or H.264 videos), I have found this to be very tedious. That’s because even if you choose to create a project using the MPEG-4 format, it always wants to convert the video — even if that video is already MPEG-4. Also I find it annoying that it duplicates the file on the hard drive. So here’s how to kill two birds with one stone:Create a new movie project. If you’re wanting to edit widescreen clips from ripped DVDs, then choose the widescreen format, otherwise I just choose MPEG-4. Now close the project and go to the project file on your hard drive. Control-click and choose Show Package Contents from the pop-up menu. Navigate to the Media folder, and drop all your video clips in there.
From what I can tell, it will accept just about anything so long as you have the codecs that allow QuickTime to play it. Now open your project and it will tell you that there are items in the trash. Choose to view those items and then select all and drag them to the clips pane. Now you should be able to edit freely with those new clips without having to import them.
