Inserting an imovie to an existing imovie?

Is it possible to insert an iMovie to another iMovie? I have 20 short movies that the children at my school have made and I want to make them into one iMovie with chapters and then make a dvd.

Hi Justin - welcome to iMovie Discussions!
You can do that - look here:

  • Decreased JPEG quality when inserted into iMovie as stillframe

    I am trying to create a 1 minute video of still frames that consists of a picture that has a duration for 1 second, followed by a black screen for .5 second, repeated until the end of the video.
    What I am finding is that the quality of the JPEG decreases when it is inserted to iMovie and is then saved to a file format that would work within presentations (often .wmv). I have tried saving as Quicktime and then using other programs to convert to .wmv but experience the same problem.
    Is there an easy solution to this problem? I'd appreciate any help that I can get.

    Sounds like you are creating web graphics. Your project is almost the a standard web banner size. It's very small. If your composition window is set to full resolution and 100% scale and the imported images are not perfect then follow these instructions.
    The comp must be set to square pixels and an even number of pixels high and wide
    The quality setting of the layer in the timeline must be set to high quality (the slash should be solid and go this way /)
    Your original images should be created in square pixels (most are) and they should be an even number of pixels high and wide
    Your images should be set to 100% scale.
    Do that and you'll get a pixel for pixel reproduction of the original image. If you scale, rotate, or mix pixel aspect ratios then the pixels will be reinterpreted. If the image is an odd number of pixels high or wide then the pixels won't line up.

  • Are Virtual Copies saved in Backups? How do I insert a backup into an existing catalog?

    Are Virtual Copies saved in Backups? How do I insert a backup into an existing catalog
    I deleted a tif image file that I didn't intend to, which had several LR virtual copies created from it. The virtual copies had a lot of important history that document my print preparation edits. Are these virtual copies saved in the LR backups?
    If so, how can I insert them into the catalog I am using? I have made a lot of edits in the two days since my last backup and don't want to lose that history either. Do you suggest I make a current backup before retrieving files from my last backup? I know I'm supposed to go to the backup location and open the last backup, but how do I blend that with the current work from the last 2 days?
    Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks, Tom

    Rob,
    That was exactly what I was after. However, I'm still having trouble getting the virtual copies imported. The master file was in my trash, I restored it to the original hard drive folder. Before I got your message I re- imported it to LR but of course LR came up with a new name since I was importing from and saving it to the same folder in LR. And of course no copies. This may have been a mistake, but before starting the procedure you described, I re-named the master file (it seemed that the import from backup would re-create it so I didn't want  a conflict).
    Then I did what you said and used the 'Import From Another Catalog' feature. I found the virtual copies in the backup and checked them. But when the import completed, the it gave me file names  xxx/Copy1, xxx/Copy2 but there was no image or history or metadata. When I tried to find the folder containing the files, it said it couldn't be found. So I missed something in the settings. When I tried again, there was a warning saying the file(s) exists in the catalog and its settings differ. I went ahead anyway and the message I got was "No Photos in previous import"
    Here's what the import from backup shows:
    A box with catalog contents and all the folders and files within them, that you can check.
    A New Photos section, which gives 2 file handling choices: a)add new photos to the catalog without moving them or b) don't import new photos
    A Changed existing photos section with 2 replace options: a) nothing or b) Metadata and develop setting only. If you choose this you can check a box to preserve old settings as a virtual copy.
    Not sure what to do. I changed the master file back to its original name, but that didn't make a difference. Suggestions? Thanks, Tom

  • Cannot insert field or paste in existing Local Variable (container of booleans)

    Cannot insert field or paste in existing Local Variable (container of booleans)...  TestStand 4.1.
    This is very strange, especially since I have done it before. 
    The "paste" and "insert field" selections are greyed out and disabled from the right-click menu.  I have tried everything I could imagine, and searched various combinations of posts.  I am sure it is something redicoulously simple, bu I cannot find the redicule to solve this annoying issue.
    The local variable is a container of booleans.  It has 90 elements and I need to add one more.  I cannot edit / rename or do anything with this Local.  Must be karma (for thos who know me in the LabVIEW forum).  Usually, you right click, insert field and it's there..  Not this one..
    Has anyone seen this before?  Closing and re-opening TestStand did not change anything.  There is a matching cluster in LabVIEW which feeds the local in TestStand.
    It is a container of custm data type.  The Edit Flags are ok (edit is allowed).  Can't think of any other valuable info..
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I should correct an erratum in my original post.. 
    Since I am not the original author of the code, I am not sure it is a custom container.  As a matter of fact, I don't think it is.
    It does not appear in the custom data types.  So it must be a Local.
    I will attempt to clarify what I am dealing with...  (TestStand 4.1)
    Maybe pictures are worth thousands of words.
    As with typical TestStand projects, there are various variables:  Locals, Parameters, FileGlobals, etc..  Nothing odd here.
    The one I am concerned about is the Options_Present which is a container of booleans.
    I am sure I have edited this one before.  Although I seem to recall that it was automatic after changing the cluster in LabVIEW.
    Within the Locals, the  2 that are underligned in red do not allow to edit anything (change name, add, delete, paste).
    Trying to Insert Field or paste are not possible.

  • When I insert new data on an existing graph, the graph deletes

    When I insert new data on an existing graph (for example, just adding a new year of data) and press insert, it just deletes the graph entirely. My only option is to recreate the entire graph which is frustrating because I lose its format and colors. Any suggestions?

    Here I opened the existing chart, with the old data. I need to remove the oldest year and add a new year. Which I do below:

    Hi Kumar,
    Thanks for the quick response. The item I am talking about is a simple cable which is used in meters(only one unit). But for variable size item, we need more than 1 dimension right? The scenario is like this,
    Material : Cable12345
    Application:
    Used in a single elctrical panel for different application as follows
    a) for coolant motor
    b) for servo motor
    Here they are identifying these two applications with different tagging like CB6 & CB17
    In the BOM they are giving Cable12345 as an item for the electrical panel and they are adding the length of cable required for both the application (4M + 6M) and giving as 10 M against the code. I want to split the same thing using installation point as follows
    Header
    Electrical panel
    Item
    Cable12345           10M(Total of SI's)
    Sub-item details
    Installation points   SI-QTY      SI-Text
    Coolant motor         4M            CB6(tagging reference)
    Servo motor           6M            CB17(tagging reference)
    If I define the BOM like this structure, I assume the consumption will be for 10M (item qty) and we can print the SI content in the production order.
    Kindly confirm.

  • Photo from iPhoto gets cropped when inserted into iMovie

    My old video (miniDV camcorder, DV) is 4:3 and lower resolution than my photos (16:9, good digicam). I inserted a vertical photo into a video project, and the photo gets truncated on playback.
    I expected it to be scaled to fit when shown on the screen, like iPhoto does.
    Am I doing something wrong? Please tell me iMovie handles inserted photos sensibly.

    WHat version of iMovie, and iPhoto?
    THIs forum is for iMovie iOS (iPads, iPhones).
    Are you talking about iMovie for Mac?

  • Video inserts in imovie 06

    I'm importing video files(not audio) from another hard drive (B roll), into my timeline
    (video inserts), but it's taking a lot of time (20 min for 10 second footage)
    Could someone help me, please?

    How long was the original clip? (The one you use 10 seconds of)?
    You see, iMovie is a non-destructive editor. That means the full length of the original clip is imported, som you can at any time revert to the full length of the clip even in the "new" project.
    Is the hard drive connected via USB? Directly on the Mac? Or via a hub? Or via the keyboard?

  • How do you insert an iMovie project into a blog?

    I created a new project (my first) in iMovie and would like to insert it into the text of a blog.  I attempted a copy and paste from my desktop, but it did not transmit into a readable format in the blog.
    I am using a MacBook Pro with Mavericks, 2.6 GHz Intel Core processor, with 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3.
    Thanks very much for any advice.
    Cheers,

    I'm no expert on this but I hink you would have to upload your movie to YouTube or similar then put a link to the movie in your blog.

  • Inserting div in a pre-existing CSS layout

    I am trying to add a div tag to an existing CSS style sheet - twoColFixFt Hdr.css. I want to add a second sidebar under the existing sidebar which is floated to the right of the main content. I want the second sidebar to float to the right of the main content div as well, and be positioned under the first sidebar. I tried virtually every combination of inserting this tag in the insert div window, but I cannot get it in the correct position. I also tried positioning as an AP div (it looks fine in Dreamweaver), but when viewed in Firefox or Explorer it's overlapping the copy in the main content. Any help will be appreciated.

    1. Go into code view.
    2. Find the line of code below (around about line 95)
    <!-- end #header --></div>
    3. Wrap another <div> around the 'sidebar1' <div> as shown below:
    <div id="sidebarWrapper">
      <div id="sidebar1">
        <h3>Sidebar1 Content</h3>
        <p>The background color on this div will only show for the length of the content. If you'd like a dividing line instead, place a border on the right side of the #mainContent div if it will always contain more content. </p>
        <p>Donec eu mi sed turpis feugiat feugiat. Integer turpis arcu, pellentesque  eget, cursus et, fermentum ut, sapien. Fusce metus mi, eleifend  sollicitudin, molestie id, varius et, nibh. Donec nec libero.</p>
      <!-- end #sidebar1 --></div>
    </div><!--end sidebarWrapper -->
    4. Insert another <div> 'sidebar2' directly after the 'sidebar1 <div> as shown below:
    <div id="sidebarWrapper">
      <div id="sidebar1">
        <h3>Sidebar1 Content</h3>
        <p>The background color on this div will only show for the length of the content. If you'd like a dividing line instead, place a border on the right side of the #mainContent div if it will always contain more content. </p>
        <p>Donec eu mi sed turpis feugiat feugiat. Integer turpis arcu, pellentesque  eget, cursus et, fermentum ut, sapien. Fusce metus mi, eleifend  sollicitudin, molestie id, varius et, nibh. Donec nec libero.</p>
      <!-- end #sidebar1 --></div>
    <div id="sidebar2">Sidebar2</div><!-- end sidebar2 -->
    </div><!-- end sidebarWrapper -->
    5. Add the below css selector to your existing css:
    .twoColFixRtHdr #sidebarWrapper {
    float: right;
    width: 200px;
    overflow: hidden;
    6. Amend the 'sidebar1' css to as below:
    .twoColFixRtHdr #sidebar1 {
        background: #EBEBEB; /* the background color will be displayed for the length of the content in the column, but no further */
        padding: 15px 10px;
    7. Add the below css selector to your existing css:
    .twoColFixRtHdr #sidebar2 {
        background: #EBEBEB; /* the background color will be displayed for the length of the content in the column, but no further */
        padding: 15px 10px;

  • Do INSERT if value do not exist

    Hi.
    I am trying to create sql that does the following:
    if db1..names.cpr not in db1..people.cpr then:
    INSERT INTO db1..People(cpr,type) VALUES (db1..names.cpr,1)
    * type should have the default value 1
    Can anybody give me an idear on how to do that.
    BR
    Soren

    Don't know how this relates to JDBC but anyway.
    This should work - but I haven't tested it!
    INSERT INTO db1.people(cpr,type)
      SELECT cpr, 1
      FROM db1..names
      WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM db1.people p WHERE p.cpr = db1..names.cpr AND p.type = 1)

  • Insert XML Data Into An Existing PDF Form

    I am working on an application, written with XHTML and JavaScript, and running on AIR, so it is a desktop application.
    Users enter data into an XHTML form and upon submission I create an XML file of the data using JavaScript.
    At any later time users will be able to open the XML file from the application. I will use JavaScript, again, to read the XML and fill in an XHTML form. But at this point I will provide a button for users to generate a PDF with the data. I would then like to insert the XML data into the appropriate fields of the existing PDF form. I would like to continue to do this from within the AIR application using JavaScript.
    Is this possible?
    What version of Acrobat would I need as the developer? Professional or Standard or Other or None?
    What version of Acrobat would the end users need? Professional or Standard or Other or None?
    Can this all be done using only JavaScript and the Acrobat SDK? Does using AIR offer any help (all Adobe products)?
    When the end user clicks the generate PDF button would Acrobat have to open? Can this be done without the user seeing Acrobat open? Either way is ok, I would just like the user to see an alert saying that the file has be generated and point them to its location on the local machine. But again, this is not a requirement.
    Thanks in advance.
    Not asking for source code here, just if its possible. :)
    I'll figure out the how.

    You have two choices
    1) You can use JavaScript in your AIR application to communicate with the JavaScript in the PDF to fill in the form directly. This can all be done inside of your AIR app. This is certainly the best route to go and there is (IIRC) a sample in the AIR SDK.
    2) You can create an XFDF file from your XML data and then have Acrobat/Reader open the XFDF file to fill in the data.
    Both methods will work with Acrobat and Reader - HOWEVER, Reader users won't be able to save the PDF unless it has been Reader Enabled.
