I've recently shot a video with the school's camera, and did not
have a firewire cable so downloaded it to my Windows machine at
work where it saved as wmv file. I copied this, but on my mac ,
imovie doesn't see it, won't import it. I downloaded a program
called ffmpegx which claims to convert, but the conversions all
contain 0
I can watch it on my powermac with quicktime, but can't edit it in
imovie
Hi Rosemary,
If you have QT Pro & the Flip4Mac Windows Media component installed.
You need to upgrade Flip4Mac to Flip4Mac Pro $29US.

OR: If you have QT Pro, the Free Flip4Mac Windows component & Toast
Titanium 6 or 7.
You can.
1. Open Toast > Video
2. drop the .wmv into Toast
3. export the .wmv to Quicktime (I use PAL-DV format, frame rate
25,Audio 48kHz, 720 x 576)
4. Then you can Import the .dv into iMovie to Edit or straight into
iDVD
Cheers,
