  1. Does anyone here know anything about Mac's, specifically iMovie? I'm generally clueless when it comes to this stuff, and I'm trying to put some .avi files of a U2 concert into iMovie so I can piece them together and burn to DVD, but it won't let me import the clips into the library. HELP!!!

    EDIT: Looks like I figured it out. Damn you, iMovie '08!!!!

    iMovie doesn't read .avi files.

    I don't use iMovie myself (have no DVD burner) but this codec should be able to convert to a suitable format format for iMovie.
    (They should play already in Quicktime? - have you tried this?)

    I think it needs to be in 'DV streams' - mpg or mov format for iMovie (click on Help and it should tell you).

    Quicktime Pro would also do it - but you have to pay for the upgrade.

    THIS site should be helpful too.

    There's always iSquint which will convert most things but won't help with the iMovie thing I think.

    Finally, THIS site is always useful.

    Edit:- Looks like you did it while I was writing that! Soem of the stuff is useful anyway....
  3. I ended up using MPEG Streamclip to convert to .mov files. Thanks for your help though! I'm sure I'll have more questions soon enough....
  4. And I'm back with another question:

    I'm trying to burn a DVD or a U2 show, and after unpacking the .rar files, I found that they came with not only .VOB files, but all of these:

    VIDEO_TS.BUP
    VIDEO_TS.IFO
    VIDEO_TS.VOB
    VTS_01_0.BUP
    VTS_01_0.IFO
    VTS_01_1.VOB


    My question is, if I'm burning these on Toast 8 as a video DVD, do I have to create a separate folder for any of them, or can I just tell it to burn them all onto the disc, and it will know what to do?

    just put them all in a VIDEO_TS folder andimport the folder using toast. Those other files are menus and stuff like that and should give you no problems

    he's probaly fallen over or something as a rult. The thing melted to his chest? wtf
  10. I reckon he took a good kicking off someone/several people and the battery was a result of that, as were the spine and ribs.

    Still something that it glued itself to his chest though, as you say
