    • 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.

Hi Everyone,

I'm going to be getting an HD camcorder for Christmas this year and I was worried about one thing. Does iMovie '08 support HD? Full HD? I want to edit my videos just as I did before with my standard definition camcorder. I am wanting to edit videos at 1920 x 1080.

Will I have to upgrade the software to go with the camcorder?

Thanks,

Scott

Yes you can edit 1080i video in iM08.

You should be aware of the iLife requirements. That page also has a link to tested cameras.
