• The Mac-Forums Community Guidelines (linked at the top of every forum) are very clear, we respect US law and court precedence when it comes to legality of activity.

    Therefore to clarify:
    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying unprotected movies or homemade DVDs.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying tools in the context that they are used for legal purposes as outlined in this post.

I have searched and searched and did download Perian. However it still has not solved my issue.

I use Sony Vegas pro 8 on my Windows system and my camcorder records to a flash card in AVI format. It also can record to mini DVD. I find the flash card to be so easy and quick, so have always used that.

I got some simple footage that I wanted to try in Imovie and well, it does not accept AVI. I did get the perian and can play AVI via QT now, but I would like to find something that can get my files into Imovie so I can actually use it.
I am very wary about downloading things from a google search. I went to the Apple website and searched through the Video app's available. I just can not seem to find what I need, or I am missing it.

I do not mind paying for QT Pro if required.

Thanks for all your help and time.

PS.
I have the new Macbook, so shall only be making very simple videos. I plan to buy the Quad imac once I get home from training later this year. So shall be buying FCE for that.
