• 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.

Is there any program other than Final Cut Pro for a Mac where you can layer video clips on top of one another and change their opacity (much like you would do with images in Photoshop)? Thanks in advance!

You can do it iMovie 09/11...I'm not at my compuetr ( Mac ) at the moment...but you drag a clip onto an existing clip...you will get a pop up menu...from there you choose Cutaway...open the clip inspector for that clip and adjust the opacity...( You must have advanced tools in preferences selected for this feature )

Thank you thank you thank you! I have been scouring the net trying to figure this out. I know Final Cut Pro does more complex layering but I simply can't afford it! I really appreciate your help.
