Importing Video from DVD to Edit in iMovie?

I need to import video from a DVD to edit in iMovie. What's the best way to go about this?
Thanks,

DVDs are in a socalled delivery format (mpeg2), which isn't meant and made for any processing as editing...
for using the iLife apps, you have to convert'em first, in recommended order, choose one of the following tools/workarounds:
* DVDxDV (free trial, 25$, Pro: 90$)
* Apple mpeg2 plugin (19$) + Streamclip (free)
* Cinematize >60$
* Mpeg2Works >25$ + Apple plug-in
* Toast 6/7/8 allows converting to dv/insert dvd, hit apple-k
* connect a miniDV Camcorder with analogue input to a DVD-player and transfer disk to tape/use as converter
none of these apps override copyprotection mechanisms as on commercial dvds...

Deleting original video from ipad after editing in imovie

Hi everyone. I am new to imovie on the ipad and I have just bought a GoPro Hero 2 to take some video.
My problem is that the video I am taking is in large clips. The camera is on for about 20 mins at a time and the useful footage is about 5 - 45 sec long each clip. I am planning to make about a 5 min movie but as you appreciate the amount of footage I take to get 5 mins of the good stuff is huge.
I want to know if I can make a project of multiple clips, that I want, but delete the original video which is 98% rubbish and clogging up the ipad? This process is going to take some time so I just want to get what I want ready for editing and delete the excess.
I tried to delete the original footage from iphoto after I edited out the stuff I wanted but then the project footage was lost.
I apologize if this has been answered or if this is a basic question but as I said this is all new to me. Any help would be appeciated.
Thanks in advance.

1. Ask on the iMovie forum, that's the best place for iMovie help.
2. When you get there, ask about export settings. Sounds like that's where the issue is.

Novice here: can video from thumb drive be imported to iPad 2 with the connect kit? If so how. I have a thumb drive with video on it but iMovie doesn't seem to detect it.

how do i import video from my sony cx130 to imovie?

Follow the steps below to troubleshoot if the computer does not recognize the USB connection from the camcorder.
Turn off the camcorder.
Ensure the USB cable is connected securely to the camcorder.
Ensure the other end of the USB cable is connected securely to the USB port on the computer. NOTE: Connection through a USB hub is not supported.
With the exception of the mouse, keyboard, and camcorder, remove any other USB connected devices from the computer.
Turn on the camcorder.
On the camcorder LCD screen, touch the computer or hard disk icon.
If the issue is still not resolved, connect the USB cable to a different USB port on the computer.
If the issue is still not resolved, try uninstalling and reinstalling the USB driver.
If the issue is still not resolved, test the USB port on the computer by connecting a different USB device.

Trouble Imprting video from canon hg 10 to imovie 08

Hi, I am having trouble importing video from my canon hg10 to imovie 08. When I try to import video imovie 08 tells me my camera is not connected even though it is. The canon hdd appears on the desktop. I have an intel core duo mac mini and have updated imovie 08 to v. 7.1. Any ideas would be much appreciated, Thanks.

Hope you all had a great Christmas.
Now back to the problem at hand. Nathan, did you get your Mac to recognize the camera.
I spend 2 hrs. with Apple Care x-mas morning, had to cut them off 'cause my children wanted to open their presents. Recorded them on my HG-10. Haven't had a chance to call back to continue case.
I want to find a solution, before having to go to the extreme of initializing the drive in camera.
Anyone?

Impossible to import videos from Panasonic SDR s26 to iMovie 09, previously no problem. Why?

Impossible to import videos from Panasonic SDR s26 to iMovie 09, previously no problem. Any way to solve this problem?

I don't have your model but here are some things to try.
1) Make sure you are powering the camcorder with AC power not batteries.
2) Open iMovie before connecting the Camcorder
3) Connect the USB Cable and turn on the camcorder
4) Open the LCD screen of the camcorder. Does it give you a choice of Pictbridge vs. PC Mode. If so, choose PC Mode.
5) iMovie import screen should come up.
Also, make sure you have installed all software updates. (/Software Update). If the software update requires you to restart your Mac, then restart your Mac before proceeding. Install iMovie, iLife, Quicktime, and Leopard updates.
If that still does not work, try taking out your SD card and putting in a USB card reader.
If that still does not work, put the card back in the camcorder and make a disk image of the card using disk utility. After making the disk image, try formatting the card using your camcorder menu. Then retry shooting some footage and importing.
By the way, using MPEG streamclip should not create files any larger than iMovie will create using an import function.

Hello ptsotsos, thank you for your message. Welcome to SONY Community!
Unfortunately the Blu-ray disc player cannot play videos from dropbox. When the Internet video device is connected to an active network connection, you can browse web sites or surf the Internet. However, the built-in browser is not designed to replace the web browsing functionality of a computer.

Import videos from Canon Powershot camera to iMovie

I recently bought the Canon Powershot D30 underwater camera. I tried to import the video clips to iMovie without success. It can only export to iPhoto and the video clips when dragged to iMovie became still shots. How do I transfer the videos to iMovie for editing? I have a MacBook Pro with iMovie 11

Not sure of what you mean when you "never find where the video went". Did you use the import function of iMovie or ? If it is from the camera software, I suspect the video went to your Movies folder in your user folder. But...
Just checked this out and it is simple. I assume your video is on an SD card or something like that. Just download the movie to your desktop from the camera, then open iMovie 09 and go to the import function under the file menu and import the movie from your desktop. As to

How do i import videos from my iPhoto to my iMovie?

I need to know how to import video clips from my iPhoto to my iMovie to put into a movie. I know how to import pictures from iPhoto to iMovie but not video clips. Help??

All the compatible videos that you have in iPhoto should appear automatically in iMovie in an Event named "iPhoto Videos".
Each time you open iMovie, it will look for any new video clips in iPhoto. Thumbnails will be generated and placed in chronological order in the iPhoto Videos Event.
You can drag clips from the iPhoto Videos Event to the timeline of any project (new or established), just as you do with clips in other Events.
Note that no duplication occurs on the hard drive. The clip thumbnails in the iPhoto Videos Event are simply referenced (linked to) the actual video in the iPhoto app.
So, there is really no need to separately import the iPhoto video clips into iMovie - unless of course you have a particular reason to do this (such as for a better organisation of the clips).

TS5193 i am unable to download video from olympus e-pl3 usining imovies 10

when i try to download from the olympus camera to imovie 10 all it shows are empty clips and nothing downloads, any suggestions.

Hi, I am back and can see clearly. I have not experienced the error box while moving the pointer. I do have some examples for your review. I will start with what happens when I start a session. I click on IE and get the error box. I click on red "X". Comcast.net is my home page and the Tab is trying to take me there. The symbol showing that it is running is turning but will not connect. Next I click on the "X" on the address bar. This stops the TAB. Now I click on the Refresh and I get my home page without any error box.
Examples
1. The animalrescuesite.com
From e-mail. I am helping to provide food for animals and it doesn't cost me. If you are interested I encourage you to go to the site and sign up. You will get an email each day and it takes less than thirty seconds to do. When I open there is no error box. When I click on "click here" I get the error box. To close I click on the red "X". I then click on purple box "click here to give". No more error boxes backing out of the site.
From address bar there is no error box on page 2.
2. bestwestern.com
From e-mail. Same as example #1. no error box on page 1. When I click on "book now" I get error box. I click on red "X" and then no more error boxes while in the site. I clicked on each tab. Also no error boxes while backing out of site.
From address bar there is no error box on page 2.
3. Any e-mail with video link.
When I click on the link I get the error box. After I click on the red "X" the video starts.
I hope this helps. Also I wanted to get your take on me uninstalling the fire fox and when. I am ready to compose my e-mail to Adobe. Do you want to see it before I send it. You might offer an insight that I miss.

How do I upload video from lumix dmc-fz100 to iMovie 9?

I can't upload videos from camera into iMovie. It worked at some point, but no longer. Help please!
Mac OS X v10.5.8

If your camera supports both PTP and Mass Storage Device modes, it may be necessary to use both modes to import all media content. If some files do not import as expected using one mode, try switching to the other mode and importing again. Note: Some cameras may refer to PTP as Pictbridge or PTP/Pictbridge.

Video quality awful after editing with iMovie

Hope someone can help.
When i edit gopro camera footage in iMovie the quality is awful after exporting finalized clips/footage.
If i play the clip imported directly from the camera it appears in crystal clear HD. As soon as i do anything with it it degrades to the point where it almost looks like a 'negative 'shot.
Any help greatly appreciated.
