I would like to transfer old home movies on vhs onto my macbook...I was told that a tv tuner would be the way to go. I found one and it is the ATI TV Wonder HD 650 Combo. Now my question is since it records in mpeg2 am i going to have to get something to convert the files from mpeg2 to mpeg4 so that imovie will be able to read and edit the clips...
View 1 RepliesMy brother has told me its simple to switch over itunes library but sure he isnt gonna tell me, he is like that! My iMac desktop is tiger 10.4.11 & i want to transfer my itunes library, including apps/films/tv shows etc to my macbook laptop which is 10.5. I have uploaded most of my pics to mobile me so that they are safe but I have home movies also & want to secure them. I was gonna upgrade the imac tiger to snow leopard as Im probably getting a time capsule as a gift & would need to be 10.5 or higher to use it I believe but i decided against that. I will just use the desktop for general browsing etc & not keep anything of sentimental value on it.

just wondering if DVD-R is the most universal, most compatible DVD format that I should be using to burn all of my videos. I don't need to re-write anything, just need to write the DVD once and be able to play it on the most amount of DVD players from now until 40 years from now.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI just bought a Mac Mini and was excited to start saving my home movies from 8mm cassettes to my hard drive and go nuts with editing and so on and so on. I have a new intel mini 1.83, what do I need to handle video editing without waiting 5 hours for a dv to become a .mov and or waiting 300 hours ti import a mpg into imovie. I have about a grand to work with, will a g4 tower be enough OR g5? Will be looking on craigslist and have found several however I have no clue what equals a mac mini towerwise for a starting point, someone told me they have an old g4 and have no problems with video editing, however looking at the specs it is underpowered versus what I have.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI recently copied a few movies from my phone to my laptop home screen. Now when I try to remove them from the screen to a folder all I can move is a copy of the movie while the original stays on the home screen. I have tried to cut and paste but all that I can do is cut, no paste.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI recently pulled all of my old home movies from VHS's to the computer with a roxio software. I have them in iMovie '09 and have edited them and what not. Next I wish to import them into iDVD to burn them to share. First off is there a good amount of video to export at a time? because I have massive amounts. Probably 10-15 clips of about 2-3 hours of movie a piece. Also when I go to export just one clip it eventually quits on me. Is this because they are too long or too big? They do measure up to be between 10-15gb.

I am back from a vacation with the family and realize that I can't import any video to my imac because the HD has no more space. To get some space back I am currently doing the following: Going through old video footage and trashing all video I never used in a project. If I attach an external HD can I can I download raw footage on this and then edit with imovie through the external? s there anything anyone else suggests? I MRoogled this and found some ways to save space but couldn't find much on the above two questions that weren't over my experience level as I just want to do home movies for memories.

For the past 10 years I made around 20 dvd from vacations, wedding and others events. Recently I decided to put them on my computer in quicktime format using handbrake. Unfortunately half of them will not work. Looks like the DVD is damaged, but I don't see any scratches.
So I tried with different softwares like mac the ripper, dvdxdvpro. But no luck, I can't extract the movie from a bad dvd.
When I put my dvd in a dvd player, some part of my movie will skip or freeze and some will play just fine
Just wonder if anybody knows a way to retrieve movie from a damaged dvd or maybe a part of the movie
I spent a huge amount of time to make those dvd and even if I have the original cassette, I wish I could have them back.
I have a lot of home movies that were recorded onto a Verbatim Hard Drive Recorder in a .mpg format. These movies are in the proper widescreen aspect ratio when played back on my TV, however, when I transfered them to my Mac the .mpg video files became fullscreen. I had to use MPEG Streamclip and the MPEG-2 Playback Component to create true widescreen .dv files for iMovie. However, I was forced to to do an erase and reinstall of Leopard last week and I lost the MPEG-2 Component.
I was upgrading to Lion though, and I had heard that the Component was no longer necessary as Lion had the capability to playback MPEG-2 files. I had assumed that Streamclip would also use this built-in MPEG-2 Component. I have upraded to Lion just today, but Streamclip cannot open any of the .mpg files claiming it needs the Component. Is there another Streamclip equivelant that can correct the aspect ratio with requiring me to buy another Playback Component? Or better yet is there any existing application on Lion that can correct the video shape?

I've been paying for my Mobile Me account and use My Gallery to store movies for business, but now I need to 'move' everything to my iCloud. I have several Apple devices: my Mac [OS 10.7.4], my iPhone and my iPad. All seem to have iCloud on them, but I can't access my movies in iCloud. However, I can still see them in My Gallery, which I presume will 'go away' soon. So I need a place to put them to be able to link customers to them. It takes forever to put one into my 'dropbox' app. I thought they would automatically transition to iCloud? But they don't seem to be doing that?
