XE and Cheese

Continuing the conversation from XE new releases? Seems not! :( ...(and my apologies to OP for the hijacked thread)
So far we have Nicolas, Fredrik and myself getting together for wine and (perhaps non-hole-y) cheese at the next Open World ... possibly Laurent since he goes every year ... who else?
I wonder whether we need an XE/APEX system to do the registrations?

Like most countries the Yanks have strict controls on the importation of foodstuffs. You can read the details on the Customs and Border protection website but for the purposes of this thread the key facts are:
"Dairy items such as milk, yogurt, butter are generally admissible, although this is subject to change, depending on disease outbreaks. .... Hard cured cheese such as parmesan or cheddar are generally admissible, soft cheeses such as brie and soft curd cheese and cheese in water(ricotta, feta, etc.) are not."
Cheers, APC

    However, ekiga (which correctly identifies the sony dcr-hc32 on auto detect) only shows a green screen and not the usual broken camera bouncy thing
    http://www.flickr.com/photos/54364666@N00/2233176806
    this is apparently a known bug in ekiga  2.0.11 (http://www.nabble.com/ekiga-2.1.0-svn.- … 81873.html)
    somewhere else there was also concern with pwlib plugins. Other distros do pwlib-plugin type packages. arch doesn't?
    $pacman -Qi pwlib ~

    Either way, i'd like to also use gnome's cheese (just for fun) or potentially skype video. Using the minidv camcorder as a v4l device would enable this and hopefully work around the ekiga bug.
    It seems there are a few choices to do this. None of which I could get to work.

    Load vloopback

    You need to use Coriander and set on services tab V4L
    And then you will have a V4L in /dev/video1.
    but this won't work for this case (though i did build it, and updated the out of date lib{raw,dc}1394. I downgraded before trying the other options.

These cameras record compressed DV video on the tape, while the IIDC specify uncompressed, on-the-fly video flows. If you wish to use a camcorder you should have a look at Kino instead.

    the command, both with and wihtout sudo, continue until ctrl+c kills it.
    Somewhere someone has to have a minidv camcorder working with v4l!? anyone doing it on arch -- or anyone see a glaring mistake?

  • Comparison between webdynpro and adobe forms

    Hi All,
    I want to compare Adobe v/s webdynpro.Can anybody tell me some pros and cons of webdynpro over Adobe?
    Thanks.

    Hi Shweta,
    This is a little bit "chalk and cheese".
    WebDypro is an application programming environment with huge functionality which you can use to create any online application.
    Adobe forms are a forms based UI which can talk to an application programming environment such as WebDynpro, or a business process environment such as Guided Procedures if it is available, but can also work independently on a PC or laptop without a network connection.
    But I assume here you are talking just a WebDynpro "form" i.e. a UI, versus an  Adobe form?
    Think of it this way:
    Adobe forms are a forms specific technology - WebDynpro forms aren't - they are part an application technology
    Adobe forms can be used <b>offline</b> and <b>printed</b> with no additional effort - WebDynpro applications are only used online, and print functionality needs to be specifically added (other than printing straight from the Web Browser which really isn't the same thing at all)
    Adobe includes a number of features to support offline processing and later upload - such as barcode generation - (you can fully or partially enter data in a form which generates the barcode, then print it and swipe the barcode with a reader), digital signatures, intelligent protection of fields, and offline button features (e.g. to return a form via email) - WebDynpro doesn't do anything offline... of course.
    And of course there are different skillsets required to create the forms. 
    But really the main criteria to decide one vs. the other is:
    Do you need <b>offline</b> capability? If you do then its clear the choice is Adobe.
    Personally I prefer Adobe also if you are likely to be printing the form. 
    If everything is happening online then really its just an application and other factors will dictate the forms choice, such as available skillsets and the level of integration required with backend systems.
    This is also consistent with SAP's current and future direction - SAP is delivering forms as Adobe forms - so they can be used online and offline.  Applications SAP delivers using WebDynpro.

    understand the difference.You can practice on this one first. What's the difference between chalk and cheese? No just kidding.
    A JDK is a set of tools for Java development including compiler, runtime system and standard libraries. J2EE is the enterprise version of the Java technology platform (it's one of three). To use it you download the proper JDK's.

  • Curious about the Resolve color program and if it can deliver better final product than Premiere.

    Looking to hear form people who have used it. What are the benefits?

    Chalk and cheese ..especially in the right hands.
    Resolve is a CC / Grade pro application beyond the scope of Premiere or Speed Grade ( as it is).
    Benefits are  many:
    Secondaries, Power Masks,  Mask Tracking, Keying, Nodal grading, stabilisation...on and on...
    Try it for your self .  Watch a video tutorial.
    Its free but you  do need the system to run it and time for a learning curve to use it.
    Cons . Requires a profesional  workflow as in DI and managing assets through a pro pipeline.

  • HT2479 I'm trying to extract a photo clip from my video.  How do I do that?

    I just took a video of my daughter's new wine and cheese shop.  She loved it and wanted a picture of her that is in the movie.  Can I extract a photo clip from the movie?  I can't figure out how to do it and would love some help.  Thanks.

    Or just play back in full screen and pause the video on the section you want and take a screen shot(Shift CMD + 3).
    Another thing you can do is Export using Quicktime from the Share menu and change the Export setting to Movie to Image Sequence. Make sure you export into a folder as you will get approx 30 images for every second of video you export. I would recommend creating a new project and just adding a couple seconds of the video clip around the spot that has the image you want then export Movie to Image Sequence (into a folder).

  • How do you organize multiple mailboxes for each accepted domain with the same local part?

    Let's say we are aceppting emails for the two domains wine-and-cheese.com and beer-and-pretzels.com.
    I plan to create two mailboxes [email protected] and [email protected]
    By default, the local part of the SMTP address uses the alias, which is the same as the sAMAccountName. Since I cannot have two AD users with the same sAMAccountName, I choose to name them "info-wine" and "info-beer". The result is, that
    I have two mailboxes with the address [email protected] and [email protected], respectively.
    One thing I could think of would be to manually add [email protected] and [email protected] to the corresponding mailboxes. I prefer to avoid anything that has to be done manually.
    Another idea, that involves manual editing is, to change the aliases of both mailboxes to "info", but that results in having the second mailbox create the SMTP address info2@….
    I am very interested how you handle those situations, particularly in bigger companies with more than 50 employees and 75 mailboxes.

    Hi ,
    Alright , based on my knowledge i have given some points please have a look in to this.
    Step 1 :
    Please create the first user account on AD in the below format.
    info as the first name in AD
    wine as the last name in AD
    Then please create the second user account on the AD in the below format.
    info as the first name in AD
    beer as the last name in AD
    Step 2 :
    Then you need to have the email address policy with the custom type attribute which should apply the email address based upon the first name.So that all the email address will have the first name (i.e ) "info" on the prefix.
    Custom type attribute should have to be like
    %[email protected]
    %[email protected]
    %[email protected]
    %[email protected]
    Note : The custom type attribute which is created first will be the primary address for all those mailboxes.In the above example
    @wine.com will be the primary smtp address for those mailboxes .In case if you want some set of mailboxes need to have the suffix @wine.com as the primary smtp address and some set of mailboxes to have the suffix @beer.com as the primary smtp
    address then you need to create the separate email address policy with rules.

  • CASE WHEN functionality in BI Publisher

    I have previously used Discoverer to do our reporting and am investigating the differences between the two products. I understand that its chalk and cheese but one thing I am having trouble identifying is the CASE WHEN functionality that we use Discoverer in BI Publisher.
    An example of the usage for our CASE WHEN would be creating a derived column in a report to convert existing data into a more standardised format.
    I imagine this is quite a simple answer and I have just missed it but could anyone out there help me with where I can input the functionality in BI publisher.
    I am not the most technically gifted so any answers with simple words help :-)
    Edited by: 943098 on 27-Jun-2012 03:25

    You can use CASE WHEN in a sql query in a data model. You can also use it in the RTF template via "if then else", choose statements etc
    Take a look at section 4.10 in the BI publisher Report Designer's guide for use cases/examples: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/bi.1111/e22254.pdf

  • Mac mini with a 24" display or a new iMac 24"?

    Hi,
    Since Apple releases the new iMac, and at the same time, updated the mini, I'm wandering where my heart should go.
    I like the iMac, a little bit more powerful, better video card and not sharing memory with main memory, better BTO (bigger HD, faster HD too, memory, etc) iSight and mike, and so on so on. I have not seen one yet, but I'm still puzzled by the glossy screen. Many article I read said that it is a like or not based on personal taste and environment you put it in. I bought a Sony display 2-3 years ago, which I returned, because of the glossy screen. The images were very clean and very fun too work on, but I could not endure to see my face in the screen continuously. That's what I'm afraid about the new iMac.
    So far so good, I read the article on http://www.macworld.com that compare the new mini C2D with an iMac, and while it is less performant it is still a good performer. Only a few points below the iMac. So...
    Choosing a mini with a 24" of my choice with the same resolution as the iMac will cost me around the same (maybe a few hundred $ less), but I'll have a smaller/slower HD and not a dedicated video card. I'm wandering if the larger screen resolution will affect the mini performance? Sure, for the HD space, I can use an external HD on firewire. Maybe even boot from it and use the internal and slower disk for backups (like TimeMachine for instance).
    I do not play game, or very occasionally, I'm doing iLife/iWork stuff, and Internet surfing. I want the larger screen, as I like to have spaces to play with, but I'm afraid the mini will suffer the higher resolution.
    In the long run, the display will stay mine, when I ever decide to change my computer, while buying the iMac mean I'll drop the display and buy a new one. There's pros and cons to all of this...
    So I'd like to heard from people having the new (or even older) mini to let me your impression of what you feel about this.
    Thanks in advance.

    If you are not able to actually examine an iMac carefully before you buy, the risk that the glossy screen may not suit you is a real issue which has to be considered. Imagine that you bought one and found it to have the same problem as the Sony display you tried and had to return?
    Ultimately, the actual performance of the system is remarkably unimportant in most situations. The majority of users and uses would not show markedly different operability between a brand new Mac Pro and older G5, even though in terms of specification and benchmarking, the two are like chalk and cheese. The fact is that while the Mac Pro would be greatly faster, OS and software, not to mention the user him or herself, are all quite inefficient.
    What that means is that the difference in performance between the iMac and the mini is certainly measurable, and in use would show itself in some ways (the iMac would run smoother for example) but without the ability to sit them side by side, as a user you'd really never know. Bearing in mind that the new minis are way faster than the old G5s which were themselves screamingly fast when they were in production (and still are), it's hard to imagine that a mini would fail to impress.
    And since the actual performance of the system isn't all that crucial, what IS vital is to ensure that the system you buy is usable. The devices that matter most in that respect are the bits you, as the user, interface with. Keyboards and mice are reasonably cheap and easy to change, but displays are not when they are fixed and integral to the system.
    The downside of the mini is twofold: Firstly that the internal drive is 5400rpm, thus relatively slow. In reality this really doesn't matter all that much, particularly not if you go for 2Gb RAM. It's been criticized for it's speed, but on the other hand, it's the same as the best laptops, users of which don't seem to have problems with the drive speed. It can be got around of course with a fast external drive, used to boot the system.
    Secondly, the integrated graphics - not because that's really limiting in any absolute sense (except for gamers) but because as time goes by, more and more of the top-end software is likely to exclude systems with integrated graphics from their minimum specification list. There aren't many like that yet, and it's hardly likely to be a widespread problem, but it does mean you have to consider what software you want to run as part of the equation.
    If I were in your situation, I'd not consider spending money until I had looked at the iMac and given myself some time to work with one. The fact it has a glossy screen doesn't mean it WILL have the same problem as the Sony display had, and slight changes in the ergonomics of your desk with the iMac on it rather than the system with the Sony display previously may mean that even if it did prove reflective, it may be far less of a problem (or more of course). I would look to buy the best system with the best specification that fit within my budget (after all, it has to meet your needs for some time, even as they change), thus if the iMac screen was good, that would be the system I'd go for. If there were any sense that the reflective properties of the screen were going to be a problem, I'd dismiss it as an option immediately, and focus on either the lowest cost Mac Pro if one of those were within the budget, and if not, a Mac mini with bumped up RAM and your choice of screen.

    I attach the text:
    Working with France: Intercultural communication
    The text is about how to work with French people. It is an interview of Christoph Barmeyer, a professor of intercultural communication, founder of Culture Bridge, a consulting-company which focuses on French-German relationships, specially concerning management.
    Christoph Barmeyer's first contact with France was at the age of five, at a Club Méditérranée where he had a real culture shock. Afterwards, he returned to France at the age of 16. He went to school in Paris and had a French girlfriend, too. Today, he is fascinated by its contrasts and contradictions: he considers France at the same time modern and traditional, slow and fast. Moreover, there's a high quality of live and a special lifestyle, based on strong personal relationships. According to Barmeyer, these opposites are what makes the country so alive.
    First, there are several classic images of the French. On the one hand, the lazy French red-wine drinker and cheese eater, who is just enjoying life without working. On the other hand, arrogant political leaders, elegant women, striking workers and brilliant intellectual. These stereotypes were spread by medias and writers and are now well-known by many people. That's why some managers feel superior to the French concerning economic growth and industrial production. In fact, they think that the French are unable to do correct business, what's completely wrong: France has a high economic development, competitiveness and productivity. In addition, their annual gross national product per person is more important than the German or the Britain one.
    Moreover, the French business is structured by two main forces. The first one is globalization: French companies, specially the CAC 40, are very exposed to competition. Most of them have an impressive external growth, such as Danone or L'Oréal. These companies know a worldwide success. The other main force is a special education system: the grandes écoles, which educate country's leaders, who are brilliant managers with significant social networks. Usually, graduates from Paris-based grandes écoles start their careers with a few years of public service, at state administration or a ministry in Paris, before entering a multinational. But they stay civil servants, what means that they are able to return to public service at any time: this is called pantouflage. A consequence is the formation of influential networks, also called "state nobility".
    In addition, French communication is different from the German one, and mainly based on esprit, humour and irony. In fact, their communication style is very implicit, and management communication is indirect. Also, they have a great esprit de synthèse, what means that they often summarize essential things, without details. Furthermore, personal contact with people they know and trust is crucial to the French, what makes internet or email communication difficult: people who are close to them are more important than people who live far away.
    What's more, meetings are for exchanging information and not for taking decisions. Those are made by key players high up in hierarch, before or after meetings. Also, French managers don't like to speak foreign languages, even in important situation, because their language is very linked to their identity: speaking English is like loosing their identity for them.
    Furthermore, the French hierarchy is following the example of the "pyramid of people", what means that its power distance (people accept that power is distributed unequally) is more important than in other Western countries. Actually, the basis of the French state model is the mistrust of individual interests, uncontrolled market liberalism and globalization. Therefore, the central power of the state or a company is a crucial strategic player, and this strong hierarchy causes a pronounced centralization. Besides, the top of this pyramid are leaders, representing authority which regulates the power relations, with subordinates below who must pay attention not to be crushed by the top. As a consequence, the decisions are made top-down, and must be considered by different levels of the pyramid, what takes long time to be made.
    Besides, the role of management is paradoxical. Despite the clear power relations, French managers are very people-oriented and need frequent personal contact, both to exchange information and to develop relationships with the subordinates. Some of them even "take the temperature" of their team by going around in the morning, having a short talk with everybody just to know how they feel this day. German or English managers, specially women, told they would prefer working for a French boss, called patron, because he's more interested in the person, has time for a talk and considers management as something human.
    Barmeyer also talks about other factors influencing the French business world. First, there is the Sythème D, which is the "art of being flexible, using few resources with a lot of results, bending rules without breaking them". The D stands for débrouiller, what means unravel or disentangle. It's a sign of intelligence, because behind every formal system is an informal network of personal contacts, which you can use whenever you need it. That's what makes French business so efficient. The other factor is l'honneur, the honour, a key value in France, which influences social and working relationship, giving a social standing with obligations and rights to everybody. According to Philippe d'Irbane, today's relations are based on the society of the Ancien Régime, including nobility, clergy, bourgeoisie and farmers. This is quite different from the Anglo-Saxon or the German horizontal system, in which mutual relationships induce the duties and rights of the persons involved.
    Finally, Christoph Barmeyer gives some advice about working with France. According to him, working interculturally can be a nice experience, but you should always remain that people may work in a different way. Once you've overcome stereotypes, you can plenty appreciate and discover the new culture, but you should respect the logic of honour, build personal trust and be interested in French culture, including Art, food and history.
    Personally, I agree with Christoph Barmeyer in all of the points, specially concerning implicit communication. Nevertheless, the French hierarchy is very complex, and sometimes less like the "pyramid" than in Germany. For instance, my father told me that concerning the hierarchy in the medical departments (Abteilung ?), the French system is more "horizontal" than the German one.
    It is the combination of the two paragraphs marked here in bold italic that doesn´t pass.
    Thanks for any help

    HELP!!

  • Poor quality recording in Audition CS6

    Hi – hope somebody can help me with a poor recording quality problem in Audition.
    I noticed the problem when I was recording ‘live’ from music on YouTube, but to try and narrow down the issue, I can re-create the problem if I’m just recording 'live', playing an mp3 file previously ripped from a CD, with Windows Media Player on my computer . The quality of the original recording is fine, played with WMP ver 12, but the Audition-recorded version, recorded from the ‘live’ play through WMP, is what can only be described as ‘thin’, without any depth and with minor distortion. However, if I import the mp3 file into Audition and then edit it, no loss of quality – so it’s clearly the recording activity that’s the issue.
    I’ve tried all manner of audio hardware configurations in the preferences dialogue, especially latency as that gets mentioned a lot in the trouble-shooting texts, but to no avail.
    I’m using Audition CS6 ver 5.0.2, Build 7 with Windows 7 64bit. This is a recent installation within the full Production package and as far as I know, the problem has always been there.
    Here’s the rub - the computer is dual boot, as I’ve maintained a previously purchased CS5.0 version of the Production package, with ‘Soundbooth’ as it was in CS5. This works fine!! This uses the same OS, the same Sound card – ASUS Xonar DS Audio- and the same version of WMP. The only difference is that the driver for the Sound Card on the CS5 version, is 7.12.8.1777 compared to 7.12.8.1794 with the CS6 installation. I’m loath to upgrade the CS5 to the latest version, lest it stops working. I have checked that all the same files are present in the program files for the Sound card in both versions - they have different dates, but they are the same names.
    I feel it must be a configuration issue of some sort, rather than the driver, but I just cant work it out. It’s not helped by the Preferences dialogue for Audio Hardware not being a direct match from CS5 to CS6, with different options and drop-downs – eg, CS6 asks for the Device Class (MME or ASIO) – CS5 doesn’t. The only other difference I can think of between my CS5 and CS6 installations is that CS6 is on an SSD boot drive, but I can’t think that would have any relevance.
    Any help greatly appreciated – it’s so frustrating not to be able to suss what the problem is!

    Bob - many thanks for a quick response.
    Apologies if my follow-up might appear naive, but whilst I can use Adobe products, I dont always know what's going on under the surface!
    Taking you points in turn:
    "First, Audition doesn't affect what it's recording.  It just works with what it's being handed from your sound card....."
    So does my sound card hand something different to Windows Media Player? - what I hear being played through my speakers whilst Audition is recording, is not the same as ends up being recorded.
    "Second, Audition doesn't (and can't) work natively in MP3......"
    I'm not asking Audition to do anything that Soundbooth doesn't do successfully - if I play an mp3 from a ripped CD Audio disk and record it in Soundbooth, it records exactly what I'm hearing - ie the playback of the Soundbooth-recorded file, sounds exactly the same as the original. Why can't Audition do the same? Although they have different names, my understanding is that Audion is just the CS6 version of CS5's Soundbooth, slightly improved (allegedly) - is this not correct? Re your comment about other bits of software doing only basic processing like altering levels and trimming in/outs, at the moment that's all I want to do.
    "Third, comparing Youtube audio to CD audio is a bit "chalk and cheese......""
    Yep, understand that, but I'm not trying to do a comparison - whilst I noticed the problem live recording YouTube audio, I wanted to check that the audio quality issue was not because of the input source - hence I took the ripped mp3 audio file to use as the master in all the tests I did in both Soundbooth and Audition and proved satisfactorily to myself, that he problem lay somewhere in Audition - or my Sound Card.
    "Finally, you're lucky to be able to record Youtube videos at all........"
    Yep, understand the copyright issue.
    "I'm going to guess that the difference might indeed be down to that difference in drivers between your versions"
    Whilst this seems logical from the point of view of ruling out everything else, it would seem strange that a newer version of the driver would work less well than the previous version - when all they were fixing between the versions doesn't seem as though it could introduce a recording quality issue in Audition. You're right though - I could try downloading the audio as an mp3 file and importing that into Audition to do any trimming - as I said in my post, Audition doesn't lose quality if I import the file, only if I try and record it from the file being played 'live'. Somehow I dont think I should have to do it that way, when Soundbooth could handle it recodring live.
    The key in your response, is that Audition is only recording what my Sound Card is passing to it - I understand that, but presumably the settings in Audition will also have a bearing on how that sound is recorded. My belief is that it must be a mix of the two, and whilst I've tried everything I can think of in Audition, I must turn to the Soundcard settings/drivers. Not sure if I can install the Soundbooth version of the driver in Audition, but I might try that - if not only to rule it out.
    However, I'd welcome any further views from you or others..........
    Many thanks.

  • File-transfer question?

    Hi. Ive just gotten an imac G5 and am getting ready to transfer some info from my old G3 (10.2.8) to the new mac. I'm a bit confused regarding the methods of transfer. My understanding is that the 2 most common methods are to either use a firewire cable with apples "set-up" or "migration" assistant.....or.......use a ethernet crossover cable. I have both these cables but am wondering which method would best suit my purpose. If possible, I'd like to transfer my e-mails over from the older mac as well as my Internet Explorer "favorites' however noticed that int. explorer is'nt even installed on the new mac so wondering what to do? Secondly....wondering if its possible to transfer an earlier version of imovie over (imovie2) and have the 2 versions exist on the same mac (if so would it just be easier to install from the CD)..........and lastly what about 3rd party software....better to try to transfer via cables or install from a CD? Thanks for any advice regarding this

    Bruce,
    Your best bet is to use the firewire connection and 'target disc mode'. Connect the two computers and hold down the 'T' key on start up of the old Mac and the hard drive will appear on the desk top of your new one. In most cases it is best to install third party software from a CD/DVD to avoid any chance of corrupt or missing files. With iMovie2 you can have the two versions running on the same Mac, although, the difference between IM2 and IMHD are like chalk and cheese. Create an archive of iMovie2 on the old mac and drag it onto the new one after target disc is engaged. Open it up and drop it into your apps folder. I'm not sure about your IE favorites. You may be able to download and install IE, but it probably is not a good idea as it is no longer support by Mac. I have transfered bookmarks by copy/pasting the addresses to an MS Word document and emailing the document. Then just open each address an add it to your Safari favorites. There is probably an easier way to do it, but it works for me.
    Hope this helps.

  • What web design software is equivalent to dvd studio pro?

    is there a program that someone uses thats functionality is based on dvd studio pro?

    That's an odd question.
    Web design is vastly different to DVD authoring - chalk and cheese, really. If you are after a web development platform that allows events to happen on a timeline basis, then Dreamweaver will do this. It also allows for navigational links to be set up that go to any part of a web site.
    But then, so do most web development environments worth looking at... what exactly is it that you are after?

  • Panasonic NV GS120

    I recently bought a MacBook and am wondering, seeing as there no firewire input, the best way/ways to get my mini dv files in to the laptop to edit in Imovie? So fare all I've come up with is capture on my windows based pc as an mpeg then import to mac then convert to an mpeg format that mac reads and then open but the quality is not very good. Lots of blur that makes you feel quite sick after a while. The miniDV quality out it excellent and my old burning on windows was good so I don't think it's the film. I could capture as and AVI but AVI files seem like they would be huge. Can I connect the camera to the macbook using the USB? Issue there is that I think it's only designed for stills transfer or webcam. Is there software that will capture the video on my windows pc in a mac compatible format from the get go? Very open to suggestions,
    thanks,
    M

    Welcome to iMovie Discussions.
    But, erm; "I'm trying to mix this oil and water (chalk and cheese) and they just won't go together.."
    miniDV needs FireWire; the new MacBook doesn't have FireWire. You can't import from miniDV without some compromise if you have no FW. Sorry.
    "..Can I connect the camera to the macbook using the USB?.." ..No. It's like you can't get electricity out of the water pipe. miniDV needs FireWire ..it won't come out of the USB pipe.
    It's a long time since I've tried miniDV capture on a PC (..around 1999, I think..) so I'm a little rusty. But if you import DV into a Windows-based editor (..I seem to remember something called 'Studio DV' or various Pinnacle programs..) you may then be able to transfer those files to a Mac. Dunno, haven't tried, sorry. Someone else probably knows better.
    Other devices, such as some versions of the plug-in EyeTV of one sort or another, can accept composite video in from your Panasonic, and will produce files which you can handle within iMovie. But that's converted and downgraded DV, without the sharpness of the original.
    So, with a new MacBook and no FireWire, your best policy is probably now to get a USB-connected AVCHD camcorder for future use, and to make compromises when importing your existing miniDV tapes.
