Hi all,

Me and my old iMac encountered a problem.
I made a small movie for a friend. I used my digital photocamera on a tripod.
The result is good enough for publication on the website of a friend.
I just need to edit it a bit, but my old iMovie doesn't recognize avi movies frown

Cheers, Wim

If you want, I can give it a go. Upload the clip to....

....then provide the download link, when I'm done I'll re-uploadit and provide the new link.

Im sure QT can do this, which you will have on your mac already. But it may be that you need QT pro to do it. if so, you dont need anything besides the serial number for it wink No extra download needed.

Thanks!

The software is a bit difficult to download, and I'm not shure it'll work on my iMac, so I uploaded the file.

This is the link:

Hi Klassiekerrally, all finished with the conversion. I tested it with Quicktime and VLC Media Player and all seems well. You can re-download it at:

Let me know if you experience any problems with it.


Nice Machine!

Thanks! But my version of iMovie doesn't recognise this version frown

I have QT 5 but only have the code for QT 4 frown
Can anyone help me out on this one?

I think so too: it drills several holes in one go! The man who invented it also built a machine that can drill dotcodes in a 7x7 matrix. He's a genius!
And he drives a Messerschmitt which he has improved hehe
It has a belt-drive now, behind a plexiglass cover...

Klassiekerrally, I have now converted it to a DV file so it is just like it would be had it come out of a digital camcorder. If it won't import directly into iMovie then burn it to CD and then it should import from the CD. The file is much larger now so I had to switch file sharing websites. Here is the new download link:

My fingers are crossed!..hehe

Thanks! That format is recognised by iMovie.

It's not exactly up to Steven Spielberg standards, but it'll do for the website:

Upload it, specify what format you want, and bingo.

Hi Klassie, when I visited the site I at first though it was inoperable as well but I let it sit there for awhile and it started to play after what I assume was the time it took to completely download into my IE temp files. Usually QT videos on websites will buffer for about 10 seconds and then play. Hopefully this is some help to you.
