Greetings forum.
I want to start using my iBook to do some video editing but I'm running into some problems.
My iBook is a 12" @800Mhz with 640Mb of Ram. It's internal HD is a 30Gb.
I have a iPod Photo 60Gb connected to the iBook by forewire, so I have a little more than 30Gb to work with
Now, the case scenario:
I have installed Mac OS 10.4. My iMovie is from the Mac OS 10.3 original CD's.
1- Everything I do with iMovie is very slow. If I have a clip with 12 seconds and no sound, aplying a effect to the video takes more than 7 minutes. I can't imagine working with bigger files.
2- When I create a Keynote presentation and I export it to Quicktime, I choose best quality. After the rendering is done, I go and open the video with Quicktime but the playback is awefully slow. Like 5 fps or so.
Should I max the ram to 1Gb+128Mb? Or this wouldn't make a difference and 800Mhz is just not enough for video?
Thank you in advance,
