We know Not all videos can be imported into Imovie for editing. So you get to know what can be added to Imovie to content the produce.
Below are Video formats that iMovie supports:
Tapeless Camcorder(MPEG-2, MPEG-4 and AVCHD) ;
Tape based DV-Standard and HDV (High Definition Video) ;
Part Camera\Mobile Phone video\other video recorder devices(MPEG-1, MEPG-2, MPEG-4, H.264);
MPEG-4 video.
The camcorder and device that iMovie supports you can visit at http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1014
In the final analysis, limited format supports iMovie. How if you want to edit DVD segments, YouTube FLV Video, QuickTime video, M4V, MOV, MKV, AVI, WMV and other video formats on iMovie. Below i will introduce someway!
Now I would like to show the steps on How to import Non-Commercial DVD into iMovie
1) Insert your DVD.
2) Open Disk Utility.
3) Select the disk and then select "New Image". Save the disk image wherever is convenient, such as the desktop.
4) Once the disk image is written, open iMovie.
5) Mount the new disk image. A "Camera Detected, Scanning Contents" window will appear in iMovie, followed by an import window. You can now import the DVD contents and start editing away.
If you want to import commercial DVD and other videos that refused by iMovie, you need a converter that can rip DVD and convert video to iMovie supported format MPEG-4(MP4). You can try leawo video converter for Mac, which cost you $35. It's not inexpensive. As my tried experience, it enable us to convert most videos into the video file that imovie support.
