This is getting really annoying. I've got masses of video to play with. I imported it from the camera (HD) using iMovie to an external drive (FW 800).

But in order to start playing with it iMovie insists on importing (that is copying) each piece of video from the external h/drive to the local Macintosh HD drive! This is slow and crap way of doing things. How can I tell iMovie to stop this and to build a library or whatever on the external drive?
