How do I transfer video clips from Windows to iMovie?



I recorded some video on a Panasonic camcorder. However, iMovie does not seem to recognize the camera and won’t let me import the clips. My friend has Windows Vista, and he can import them onto his computer. However, I want to edit them in iMovie. Is there a way to transfer the video clips from his computer to mine via the Internet, while still maintaining full quality?

    Usually, camera videos are mod or tod formats, but imovie can only support mov or mp4 formats. So i think you need a converter to do this job since you want to edit your video clips with imove. Perhaps you may give a look at this mac video converter, it’s really a good one for me to convert all my video files, with simple process and powerful functions.It can support many input and output formats, you may like it as i think it’s really a good one for you to convert video files:

    iMovie will automatically detect when you have a FireWire camcorder connected. If you see the message No Camera Attached, make sure your camera is turned on and properly plugged in to your computer via a FireWire cable and that your camcorder is set to VCR, VTR, or Play mode.

    Another way to import vids to iMovie is to convert the file to mp4 or mov format first. You can’t read the vid even it’s sent from your friend’s PC. I use iskysoft video converter and the quality is state-of-the-art!
