Have problem with importing flip video to iMovie
Flip video’s simple, one-touch recording feature and compact size make it the ideal choice for capturing videos on the go, although its built-in software FlipShare can combine clips or editing them, the editing fuction is so less for the flip users.
iMovie has different versions, each version has more or less difference, the video formats they can support has its limitation, it supports mov, dv, hdv,MPEG4, etc, but for the flip camcorder(include the Flip Ultra, the
Flip Ultra HD, the Flip video Mino, and the
Flip video Mino HD) just produce flip video in mp4 or avi format, avi flip video can’t recognized by iMovie, so converting flip avi to the formats compatible for iMovie, you can import your flip file to iMovie without any difficulties.
You can use almost any
audio/video converter to convert video from flip camcorders to iMovie. Just don't use any low quality software promoted by spammers.
