Importing Video Into iMovie HD - Loss of Quality

iMovie HDAfter playing around quite a bit with iShowU, I decided to import my first video into iMovie HD.

Unfortunately no matter what I seemed to do, there was always a loss of quality after I imported the clip into iMovie. Thanks to the guys at iShowU, I found a hack that seems to work great.

Instead of importing the video directly into iMovie, open up the project folder and drop the video file into the “Media” folder. Then, simply open the iMovie project and drag the clip from the trash into iMovie when it prompts you. No loss of quality whatsoever!

Also, I stumbled onto a very cool QuickTime Embed WordPress plugin that makes posting video to your blog a snap…
