Why is it that the iMovie project is less sharp than the individual clips?

Hello everybody,
I must admit that I'm new to digital video taping, but I'm pretty sure that I'm not hallucinating. The problem I'm seeing is that the HD clips that I'm shooting and importing in 1920 x 1080 resolution (in either 60i or 30 fps) are very sharp when I view them individually, but once I assemble them into an iMovie '09 project, the resulting video is much less sharp. I'm using a Canon Vixia HF100 camcorder.
Is this some expected behavior or is it a bug? More importantly, is there anything I can do to fix this?
Thanks much, eugen

Is there a question in there somewhere? reply with caps lock off please. :-)

    I also have Jolly's problem. I found the iMovie 9.0.9 folder and tried to launch the older version of iMove. It would not launch. I removed all of the iMovie preferences from the Preferences folder, removed iMove 10 from the applications folder, and restarted my Mac. iMove 9.0.9 still won't launch and I can't access my videos created with the older version of iMovie. Is there a way to uninstall iMovie 10 and reinstall iMovie 9.0.9?

  • Why is it that the new macbook pro processor upgrade option only offers up to 2.8 Ghz with Intel Dual Core i7, when back in Sep 12 I bought a 2.9 Ghz Intel Dual Core i7 Macbook, is the new one tuned to go much faster anyway?

    Why is it that the new Macbook Pro processor upgrade option only offers up to 2.8 Ghz boosting to 3.3 Ghz with Intel Dual Core i7, when back in Sep 12 I bought a 2.9 Ghz boosting to 3.6 Ghz Intel Dual Core i7 Macbook, is the new one tuned somehow to go much faster anyway, or will the new one be slower in fact?  Or does the solid state drive compensate for the lack of increased processor capacity?

    The CPU's come from different Intel 'families'.  The older ones are 'Ivy Bridge' and the newer ones are 'Haswell'.  Numbers alone will not determine the efficiency of  CPU.

    I bought the iPhone4 in the apple store. Why iTunes shows that the SIM card isn't inserted when I connect to the compter? But I have inserted the SIM card.
    Even if I inserted another SIM card which can work nomally in other‘s iPhone, it still doesn't work in my iPhone. So I think the problem isn't because of the SIM card.bwow

    Where did you buy it?  And was it connected to a carrier?

    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
    See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
    *https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
    There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
    If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

    Interfaces contain polymorphic methods. Static methods are not polymorphic, and therefore would not make any sense to be in interfaces.

  • In iMovie 10.0.2 Why can't I find iMovie projects or events to transfer to external harddrive?

    I am trying to backup my iMovie Projects and all of the media for a number of events. I have been having trouble with iMovie 10.0.2, but it could also be my computer. I am running a Mid 2010 MacBook Pro with Maverick. I have a MacMini that I would like to transfer things over to. aybe I just can't process and that is why I am having so many issues with iMovie. Regardless, I cannot find my iMovie Projects or Events in the finder and cannot seem to figure out a way to find transfer them. They seem to have been lumped into a new library (similar to iPhoto) and I cannot for the life of me figure it out. Any ideas?

    Yeah, since they switched to using the iLibrary format I didn't recognize things. I figured it out and was able to transfer things. Funny enough, I was trying to solve for the problem described in the other thread.
    Sadly, trying a different comp (my MacMini) I was not able to make those darned clips work. They just seem doomed. Thanks for all the help though! I shall now give you more points!

  • Why is it that, "The document "Untitled.numbers" could not be saved." ?

    The new version of TextEdit (Version 1.7 (289.3)) can save files to our server shared folder (mini server, raid 1 array, 10.7.3) and save changes, Numbers can only save them the first time. After that
    The document “Untitled.numbers” could not be saved.

    Now save works, but wait for much disk grinding
    This computer went from 10.6.8 and jumped to 10.7.3 and I had to split the RAID 1 array it started on to get the installation to restart and complete. Hints from the installer that some features would not be available (autorecover drive) didn't hit it would leave a folder crucial to operation of Apple's own software inaccessible.
    The path does exist, Panda.
    Why was that folder not accessible except to system? and hidden in the normally hidden /Users/X/Library for fun? with a nearly useless error?

    As far as I know, the AutoSave feature as it is treated by iWork apps is unable to work on networks.
    You must work on the local machine then copy the document to the network.
    I guess that this annoying feature will strike until the delivery of the lond waited major upgrade.

  • Why is it that the iPhone 3GS still recieves updates but the iPhone 3G does not ?

    I dont understand why apple has chosen, to keep the 3GS going, for $0.99 on AT&T, i understand that the iPhone 3G was discontinued around 2011, but why couldnt they still make lite versins of the firmware, for example 4.2.1 lacks some features. They could have very well done that wirh 4.3.3 and 5.0.1

    The processor is too slow and there is not enough RAM in the 3G for iOS 5.

  • Why is it that the BT Speedtest ...

    ... still cannot recognise that my Mac has Flash installed?
    This has been ongoing for well over a year, yes I know I can use the wholesale test and I know I can use an alternate browser the question still remains, why can BT NOT sort this out?

    Yes it is installed, yes it is enabled, yes I have restarted Safari.
    It still doesnt recognise that flash is installed.  We had this problem with another website whilst I was testing software before I retired, the problem was that the website was NOT correctly interrogating the browser to ascertain its installation.  I suspect that or the fact that the website URL changes when the test is being run from 'diagnostics.bt.com' and Safari is rejecting the web site as not authosrised.
    No request to allow access is ever presented when running the test BTW.

  • Why is it that the Apple password reset email won't arrive? And how do I fix this?

    I forgot my Apple password, and took the steps to reset. Problem is that the email from Apple has not arrived. How do I fix this?

    Have you rebooted the Mac. Give that a try.
    If that doesn't work you could reinstall Fusion but if Fusion opens and you can get to the Library windows of Fusion I think your VM OS is toast.
    I make a habbit of copying the VM to another internal, yes I have 2 internal drives in my MBP, and to an external drive. I do this about once a week. That way if the Mac screws something up I have a backup I can use to overwrite the one that does not work correctly.
    Good Luck. Hope you get it working.
