Does iMovie '08 allow effect for an entire clip?

I just started working in '04, and I find that color correction and Brightness & Contrast only work on a 10 sec. portion of the clip. Does the new version work on the entire clip, say, in this instance, about 3.5 min.?
Thanks.
Jim

OK - I have been able to answer my own question.
First I converted one of my mini-movie AVI files to mpg-2 with VisualHub
This file could not be imported into iMovie '08
Following the advice in another message in this forum, I took one of my USB2 flash drives and created a folder MP_ROOT at the root level of the drive and created a folder 101PNV01 inside the MP_ROOT folder. I placed the mpg-2 file created by VisualHub in the 101PNV01 folder.
When I started iMovie '08, the flash drive was recognized as a camera and I was allow to import the mpg-2 file into a new event.
When I looked in the iMovie Events folder mentioned in the first posting of this thread, the file type of the clip was .MOV. The Quicktime Player shows the format of the file as Apple MPEG-2 SD Camcorder Video.
Question answered.

  • Does iMovie have an effect similar to Photoshop's "Match Color Tool"?

    Here's a question for the iMovie pros...
    There is an effect in Photoshop which is brilliant - if you already have a photo open you can use the "match color" feature to change the colors of your photo from another image file... that file could be a famous painting... the results are fantastic!
    Does iMovie have an effect or a plugin that would do this? I can't find any information.

    it's bigger brother FCPX has such an effect for video.-
    no plug-ins for the actual version of iMovie.
    for sure, when double-click a clip in iM, the Inspector/Video offers some basic color-corrections/-manipulations, such as moving the white-point.
    your examples are a bit more tricky, due to some colors are not affected - ex #1 the sky stays blue allthough the color-temperature is set to more 'warmth'.
    ex #2, the guy, is simpler: raise brightness, add warmth, raise saturation ......

  • How can I modify the Fit, Crop, or Ken Burns effect for the entire movie?

    How can I modify the Fit, Crop, or Ken Burns effect for the entire movie? I've been having to go through them all individually which takes forever.

    You could try  Edit > Select All  then click on the crop button and change the setting from Ken Burns to Fit.
    I find that this only works if you do not have the Automatic Cross Dissolve transitions in place.
    If you do, File > Project Theme and uncheck the transitions and remove them.
    After you have changed from Ken Burns to Fit, you can re-apply them.
    Easiest way in future is to set up your project (File > Project Properties) before you start adding photos.

  • Does iMovie 9 allow export to camera?

    I was wondering if iMovie 9 allows you to export a project to a mini dv based camera like the old iMovies allowed you to.

    in short: NO.
    Apple axed this feature with iM08 ..
    keep a copy of iMHD6, if you work with tape!
    you can run iMHD6 and iM08/09/11 simultaneously on one Mac ..

  • HELP!!! Adding effect turns the entire clip white.

    I've needed to change some of the words on a title clip, but can't edit the clip since it's been saved long ago, so I need to start over with a completely new clip. Well, I get the right font, right size, right title entrance. But then once I try to add the "Aged Film" effect after creating the title, it turns the entire clip white and you can't see anything.
    I'm really frustrated by this since this is one of the last changes I need to make to the video and it won't cooperate for some reason.

  • Why does mainstage load every instrument for an entire concert at once?

    I have recently finished a UK tour using Mainstage at the centre of my keyboard rig and while I got through without any hitches, I had 30 songs to program in the run-up to the tour and almost all of them involved strings in some form or other (I use Omnisphere for this) - I ended up not being able to store them all in one master song list concert because the massive amount of memory needed by having 30 instances of Omnisphere meant that it would crash straight away. I got around it by splitting the list into two concerts but it was frustrating and slowed down the process of building sets for each gig while on tour. Also, this was a fairly simple tour to program for - if I did something else which was more intensive, I've no idea what I'd do!
    I know that in the West End they use Forte on their keys setups, and I am starting to see why....however, I love the interface of Mainstage (and the fact you can use it on a Mac!) and wish that Apple would address this issue asap! A setting that allowed you to choose whether to load the entire concert into memory on startup (a definite plus given the near-instantaneous patch change times if your Mac can handle it) or just to load one patch at a time would be great.
    Has anyone else found this to be a problem, and come up with any different workarounds? Is there anyone from Apple that checks these forums who could comment?
    Thanks
    Steve

    Thanks for the replies guys - seems this one is a bit of a contentious issue! In hindsight I could have used the string sounds at a higher level, although with most of the songs there were tweaks made to the patch because I was blending the Omnisphere with a rack Motif ES module in varying degrees as the song required. I will investigate aliases also - I was unaware of these!
    But I still stand by my original point, because it limits the possibilities of using Mainstage as a database of songs e.g. for a job where you have a lot of songs in the repertoire and will be creating a different set from these for most gigs. As I mentioned, it became impossible to open the master song list and transfer songs one by one to another Concert.
    And with the comment about 64 bit making the problem disappear....well, yes but that seems a bit ridiculous that all the powerful Macs around at the moment (mine being a top-spec late 2009 15" MacBook Pro) will have to 'lump it' with 'only' the 4GB available to them!! It should be plenty equipped to handle what I throw at it, and in the case that there are a lot of memory (or CPU) intensive plugins there should be the choice of whether to have the entire concert / set / song loaded into memory on startup.
    Again, I'd refer back to Brainspawn Forte, which seems like 'the' choice for most keyboard players and show programmers. There is minimal load lag, even when loading up very complex patches that in Mainstage's current form would have it eating up resources and crashing! I'm going to reluctantly investigate using Forte within Boot Camp, but still hoping that eventually Mainstage will mature into an even more flexible and intuitive program for live work - it has a great interface!

  • How long does purchasing storage take effect for ipad, how long does purchasing storage take effect for ipad?

    I just purchased more storage space for my ipad mini. How come it hasn't taken affect yet? How long does it take for me to see the storage that I purchased?

    There is a warning notice when the process first starts that it may shut down, and, if so, to wait some long time (30 or 60 seconds; I forgot just which) before powering up.  Sometimes they reboot, and sometimes not.  But in any event, you probably went through more than one reboot, and passed the firmware test.
    Enjoy your MacBook Air!

  • Import video comes in as one entire clip

    I just purchased a new iMac which came with iLife 09. I have been using an older version of iMovie. I am a football coach and use the iMovie to import video and break clips into groups. Offense, Defense, Special Teams, etc. The new iMovie imports my video as an entire clip and I must go through and piece it together. I hate it! Am I doing something wrong? I have a Sony DCR-TRV38 mini DV camera. Always worked fine before. Just hook up to the firewire and go. If anyone can help me out, I would be in your debt.
    Casey in Pleasanton CA

    Normally, iMovie will start a new clip every time that the camera is started and stopped.
    If you have to assemble movies in groups, watch these two video tutorials. They may help.

    The second video tutorial is what you need, but you should also understand the simpler method.

  • HitTest for multiple Movie Clip at the same time

    I have a movie it is a triangle.I duplicate it and I want to hitTest on the first triangle movie clip and I added 3 different line movie clips on the 3 side of triangle.I tried to write a code something like that.
    if(firstTriangle_mc.hitTestObject(line1_mc,line2_mc,line_3mc){
    trace("Ok");
    but I've got error.I think it is not allowed hitTestObject for multiple Movie Clips.So is there anyone have an opinion about it?What should I do?

    Here is another test for multiple movie clips for hitTestPoint but only the first work the others don't
    uc_mc.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,hitle);
    function hitle(e:Event) {
    if (uc_mc.hitTestPoint(cub1,cub1Y,true)&&(cub2,cub2Y,true)&&(cub3,cub3Y,true)) {

    }else{
      uc_mc.alpha=1;
    The code above doesn't work.What should I do?

  • Does iMovie have Sound and Video Effects?

    Before i begin filming my college film i wanted to ask and see if imovie has sound and video effects. what i mean is like, say in the film a gun is shot, well does imovie have a shot going off sound? are there sound effects? or am i asking in the wrong place and see if garageband has these?
    also, video effects? i know imovie has like sepia and black and white tones among others but can i add other types of effects? if so, what kinds?
    thanks!

    you're looking for specific effects for your specific needs.. why not launching iM on your MacBook.. and look for your own..???
    BEFORE doing a "serious" project, I would allway do some test/dummy projects, just to get comfortable with some software ...
    plus:
    the two additional audio tracks allow easiely to place small audio snippets, downloaded from anywhere in the web to your movie.. if you need explosions, gunshots, lightsabres, whatever, the iNet is full of sources...
    plus:
    you can teach iM lots of new tricks by installing/purchasing 3rd party plug-ins, if you need very special effects , iM does not support out-of-the-box.

  • Text Effects for iMovie

    I am looking for some plug-in text effects for iMovie 08, I could settle for iMovie HD 6 or Final Cut Express. Specifically I am looking text bubbles or comic bubbles.
    Can anyone help me in my search?
    Thanks
    Gene

    I am looking for some plug-in text effects for iMovie 08
    iMovie '08 does not currently have a "plug-in" architecture compatible with plug-ins.
    I could settle for iMovie HD 6 or Final Cut Express.
    iMovie HD v6.0.4 is available as a free download to iLife '08 owners.
    Specifically I am looking text bubbles or comic bubbles.
    Such effects are easily created with most graphic applications and can be applied from within iMovie '08.

  • Which codecs does iMovie for iPad support?

    I have videos from a Canon Powershot camera which are in 1280 × 720, H.264, Linear PCM. I can import these videos to iMovie on iPad but when I open iMovie it does not show the files.
    I have also tried to import the videos via iTunes Movie Sync. I can play the video on the iPad but can not import it to a new project in iMovie.
    Which codecs does iMovie for iPad support? If I can play the movie on iPad, it should be possible to edit it?
    Where do I find the codecs supported by iMovie for iPad?

    iMovie was made to edit video shot on iOS devices; there is no support list, it was made to edit iOS video.
    This allows iMovie to be stable (or should make it stable as the case may be).
    That said, you are importing the video wrong, and may be in luck with your video.
    The File sharing pane is just for importing iMovieiOS projects.
    iMovie cannot edit video in the Movies app.
    iMovie edits video that can be seen in the photos app.
    So you need to import it via the photos tab, as you would photos.
    The other option is using the camera connect kit.
    If you can see the video in the Photos app, it is highly likely that you can edit it.
    But be warned that using non-iOS sourced video can make iMovie very buggy and flakey.
    Avid for iPad is made to edit more formats and might be a better choice if you have trouble.

    This process does not appear to work for me.  I'm running 10.8.3.  I created a new user for a guest staying with me.  They have gone now and I am attempting to either change the password or delete the user.  It won't allow me to choose the user I created.  I am logged in as myself and it states that I am an "Admin".  The user I'm attempting to change is listed as a "standard" user and there is a white checkmark inside an orange circular background on the user pic in the list of users. 
    Can someone help me?  I am having a hard time believing that OSx will allow me to create users and allow them use of my computer and it's drives, yet it will not allow me to change the password so I can monitor what they might have been doing while logged on?  What if this were my child?  This guest left under sketchy circumstances, and I'd really like to be able to ensure they were not using my computer to do illegal things or to have illegal communications.
    Any help would be appreciated.  (It's odd that it was so simple to "create" a user and set a password for them.......but it's complicated or a little known process to reverse.
    Thanks.

    Here are two screen shots to show you what I am seeing.  The first screen shot shows it allowing me to select (highlighted in blue) my admin user (which is what I am locced in as).  The second screen shot shows it allowing me to select the "Guest" user (highlighted in blue).  However when I click on the user "Orion" nothing happens.  It will not change to highlight that user.

  • Batch Split in OBD & billed for the entire Quantity .RG1  register does not update the excise values

    Hi All,
    I am new here . We have batch split in Delivery and 601 happens for the individual batches and billing we bill for the entire quantity . Hence the RG1 does not update the excise values for the batches and it is showing as zero (upon extraction in J2I6). Upon research through the program the latest note which i presume is patched
    The latest note is N158234 which does not show in the program but seems have been patched considering we are using the Latest version of SAP .
    As you see above in the billing we have billed for the whole quantity but RG1 does not update for the since the batches are zero .
    My programmer says because of some note related to cancellation where it says about values H & J in vbfa table and due to which program does not go through the Note for the batch split .
    Now i have checked few other projects in my company and they all seems to be following the program . So i am wondering whether my process or some customization is missing .
    Sales order (no batch determination)  , in delivery the batches are picked through wm to and batch split happens in the delivery . Then billling for the whole quantity . We have automatic excise invoice creation enabled so no J1IIN .
    Can somebody help me .
    Thank you

    My programmer says because of some note related to cancellation where it says about values H & J in vbfa table and due to which program does not go through the Note for the batch split
    Which field (H & J) they were referring in VBFA ?
    i have checked few other projects in my company and they all seems to be following the program
    How about the other projects' values in VBFA where your techinical team is guessing some issue.  Have you compared this?
    Since you have already the note 158234 implemented in your system, ideally, you should not face any issue.

    Correct. The 3G iPod does not have the hardware to support an iOS version higher than 5.1.1
    To more easily find compatible apps:
    iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.
    Apple Club - filter apps by iOS version.
    Starting when iOS 7 was releases, Apple now allows downloading the last compatible version of some apps (iOS 4.2.1 and later only)
    App Store: Downloading Older Versions of Apps on iOS - Apple Club
    App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
    You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists.
