[QUOTE="Amen-Moses, post: 4320, member: 114"] I converted a QT movie to DV and used iMovie to edit it (have you seen the Eminem video for Lose Yourself? Well in my version in the shots where he sings in the street it is raining and I've made a few other subtle alterations ;)) and everything is fine. Also with DV I have fimed myself all is fine but with stuff converted through the camera from the PCI the audio doesn't play when the "mute" buttons (actually they should be called "track select" buttons) ticked but does play when they are unticked. Weird beyond words! I bought a Logitech cordless TrackMan optical today, makes things a little easier (I'm allergic to keyboard shortcuts and with seven buttons on it the trackman is just the ticket). I'm a bit peeved that Apple didn't make iMovie use two tracks for video which would have been a vast improvement and I also haven't figured out how to do transitions without screwing up the audio timing (with two video tracks it is a simple task to line up the overlap where the transition should occur whilst leaving the audio track timing intact) but all in all it hasn't been too steep a learning curve, I may still get Final Cut Express some time soon as I find iMovie a bit limiting.
