imovie's 2 gig per clip has not been a problem for me so far. That must be more than 20 minutes of straight filming, 'cos I've had clips of 20 minutes or so without any problems. imovie breaks the film up into clips automatically, and would probably warn you of a limit. This is taken straight from the DV camera.

The 'but' would be getting the movie off the DVD, I don't know how one would do that.

Not sure as never used imovie will attempt later today, but from a quick
google people acknowledge 2gb limit per clip, so just stop before this
limit or it should just start another clip if you are capturing from dv.
Then join clips and export via quicktime for your mpeg4 file.

 Hi All

 I hired a digital camera and got the resulting movie burned to DVD,
 but as always there is a but!!  I only used part of the second tape
and there was some footage from the previous hirer on the tape which
 of course got burnt to the DVD.

 Is there a way of editing this movie to get rid of the extra
 footage??  I have iDVD but is doesn't seem to allow you to edit the
 movie itself.

 Regards

 Roger
cheers
