You...the problem is mpg4 video layer and mp2 audio. You van buy mp2 for QuickTime from apple. Streamclip is also needed for generation 1 and 2 hard drive camcorders especially jvc brands. Flips also suffer this in iMovie 08. If you use iMovie 06 with divx mp4 codec you get less hassle. The import will be soundless<BR/>In 08 yet will play in 06. 06 is free from<BR/>Apple as mac users bagged 08's interface and method at release. Good to see you've solved it, but trolling forums and trying ideas is a skill as you say in a plug and play expectant world that teens inhabit. Mum!

I've had the same issue with a new camera I bought a while back, and like you played around until I figured it out. <BR/><BR/>In early childhood, we have an unspoken rule to always allow children to work through their own problem solving i.e sit on your hands when children are cutting, doing puzzles and every other challenge they encounter in an every day context. Cheryl Doig put it nicely in her Ulearn08 spotlight too by posing the question "What learning did you steal from the children today?". I am confident that as a teacher I value the problem solving process for children and the pure delight they get from their achievements.<BR/><BR/>However, I have recently been thinking about this very same notion with adults. As a Regional ICY Facilitator I often get ALOT of random techie questions from adults...I personally enjoy the thrill of working it out myself, and wont ask unless I absolutely positively have to, Im finding more and more that adults tend not to have the same resilience of problem solving as children, and am finding the lack of hmmm "i wanna fix it myself attitude - I know I can" kind of disheartening, does anyone else experience this?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38637138.post-64368983592916372132008-10-25T00:26:00.000+13:002008-10-25T00:26:00.000+13:00What a lovely way for the children to contribute i...What a lovely way for the children to contribute in a meaningful but unobtrusive way.<BR/><BR/>I know the feeling about beavering away to make things work. Tonight's learning was how to take a Blogger flv movie and mesh it into iMovie for our collaborative dance project.<BR/><BR/>First I had to isolate the Blogger movie as a Flash video and download it to my Apple desktop, find a Flash converter to download into Windows Parallels, teach myself how to work the freshly downloaded converter and convert the video to take back to the Apple side of things to mesh into the iMovie.<BR/><BR/>What a mission but a real sense of accomplishment when the job was done.<BR/><BR/>We were talking at school today about resilience and tenacity to keep on trying different ways to solve the problems. Needless to say I took a few dead ends in my quest to get the job done but the sweet smell of how cool the end product will be kept me going.<BR/><BR/>Before I started rying I didn't even know if the task could be done let alone actually do it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
