no thanks according to my profile dates is not true. First of all It was a long time ago, didn't see such an option, in every forum I post I express my appreciation. It is not an effort at all.

I have a iMovie project with 4:3 (SD) and 16:9 (HD) footage. I tried to export it (convert it) into QT. I selected "maintain screen format" ( I guess!) but the 16:9 frames are converted (changed) to 4:3 clips. I cannot figure out which (advanced option??) choice I have to make to get it...

Thanks a lot, this procedure works!!!!!

this is exactly what I did but the riddle is that is doesn't work. Everytime the same standard Mac desktop picture shows up, for the other desktops no problem to change.

thanks for your input, but I cannot find this file (library-->preferences). No file with desktop mentioned. any other suggestion is welcome

Some time ago I wanted to change the picture on desktop 1. This picture was from my private iPhoto library. I had to delete this picture completely from my Mac Book Retina (OSX 10.8.4) because every time I started my Mac this picture was popping up again on desktop 1. Now I want to use...

Hi, You will probably know more about editing and Mac's then I do, but I completed al lot of projects with crazy tricks and I was confronted with the same problems (probably not with the same origin). So for what it is worth: you checked in Preferences the playback quality of iMovie and choose...

OSX (10.3) runs fine on my Powerbook G3 as well. succes, Gerard

Thanks, I will spend the money (280 euro) on this extra 1Gb memory

This improved the performance considerably, thanks a lot. I didn't bother with those preferences because it went fine until my project was growing (to more then 40 Gb) On the new iMac G5 (memory 2 Gb) from my brother with the same external HD it played the same project flawless. Does it makes...

Thanks a lot I didn't consider this preferences possibility anymore because sofar my projects were running fine, apparently not if they grow bigger. I changed it and it is playing almost flawless now. Also I will buy extra memory this week. Should I go for 1Gb ( 233 dollar included installation...

Thanks, I did see this once but I don't apply this until now e.g. I will test this soon. GK.

Fryke, I want to let you know the outcome of my testing. The same large iMovie project on exactly the same ext HD (USB) hooked up with the new iMac G5 from my brother played flawless!!! I guess my problem is solved for my PB G4 if I increase memory from 512 MB to 1,5Gb (the quantity my brother...

Fryke, thanks for your "thinking", I will consider splitting up the project, but it is a lot of work. This weekend I will connect my ext.HD to the new iMac G5 from my brother to see how it works and if that is giving the same problems I will copy the project to his internal drive. After running...

Thanks a lot for your input. May be you are right, but I didn't exagerate with slowing down, another clip was fine. This fluency problem is all over my project now! I cannot even stop my playhead and it takes ages before the video catches up with the sound when I want to play a clip(s) I...

I finished an iMovie project. For one of the clips I used slow motion (with the effects panel). On the DVD I made from the iMovie project I noticed that the movements in this clip are not fluent (with shocks). How to improve this, I forgot something? youre advice will be appreciated...

The latest versions of iMovie and QT Pro (recently purchased).

I solved a similar problem (exporting a large video file/project to my ext HD) by changing the formatting of the HD to HFS plus (Apple) standard. I was so stupid to think that this drive was plug and play (everything else worked allright though). So, in my case there is no need to put the iMovie...

dear ElDiablo, Thanks a lot, this formatting advice was helpfull, everything works as far as I can judge. Gerard.

Thanks a lot, I will let you know when it works. This weekend I will implement your technical advice. Gerard.
