    Splitting Huge Videos into Smaller Home Movies: Best Software?

    Years ago we had some Super 8mm videos converted to digital format (no audio / silent movies). Most video "cartridges" captured anywhere from 3.5 to 5 minutes of film. Sadly, when they were converted the company (not a major player, btw) put them into TWO large MP4 files: * 17.11 GB, 1h 43m *...

    Help me choose a new iMac for GarageBand and iMovie

    Hi 🙂 I'm helping my neighbor finding a new iMac for editing videos in iMovie and some music in GarageBand. Today, he has a 2019 model iMac running on an Intel 3,6 GHz processor with 8 GB RAM. It's stuttering and lags pretty much all the time. Without being too certain, I think even the oldest...

    iMovie Partial Blurring?

    I'm planning to shoot and edit more video in 2024 using - probably - a combination of iPhone 15 Pro and the latest GoPros (whichever number they reach in a very short time period...). In terms of editing and then sharing videos, it would be useful to be able to partially blur parts of some...

    iMovie 10 Zooms Into Clips

    I am running iMovie 10.1.10 on Mojave 10.14.6. Whenever I split a video clip -- not a still -- iMovie is zooming in the resulting clip to the left. Any suggestions?

    Ken Burns on photos with non-standard aspect ratio doesn't work

    Either using Ken Burns (the effect, not the man himself) on either iMovie or FCPX doesn't work very well if the photo has a vertical aspect ratio, or even close to square. The way it's programmed by default, it doesn't want to show anything outside of the photo itself, even if it looks...

    Combine imovie slideshow with a few movies in funeral loop?

    Dear Community, I usually enjoy researching things myself, and I've done enough to know I can create a slide show in the new Photos. (I'm just up to Catalina on my laptop and HIgh Sierra on my iMac to be able to use some legacy software.) What I'd like is a continuous loop that combines...

    iMovie rewind function (arrow key) while editing

    Is there a way to speed up the rate of the rewind with the left arrow key while editing videos in iMovie? I can press and hold the left arrow key to rewind but it just takes forever. Thanks in advance.

    Resolved iMovie renders part of a video as black

    Hi, I have a VERY SPECIAL project in iMovie and what iMovies does is, that it renders the video, but part of it is black. Not all of it. When I tried to render it a few times to check If some part specifically does it, actually it does not ... the time when the screen goes black is always...

    Safe to remove iMovie Theater?

    iPad iMovie will not update on my iPadPro?

    Since October 24, 2022, I’ve tried to update my iMovie app on my 4th Generation 12.9” iPadPro running iOS 16.1. Each time it starts the update (update circle starts to spin) then within seconds it stops, and displays the “Update” button again. Have tried to update many times. All other apps...

    Can iMovie help edit Zoom conference recordings?

    I've never found iMovie to be of any help to me, and it continues to not be. For the last couple of years I've had a Zoom license for lots of meetings each of which gets recorded to an *.mp4 file. I can open and read the file in Zoom of course, but also in QuickTime, VLC, etc., except iMovie...

    iPad Any improvements to iMovie on iPad OS, to make it worth buying again?

    I had an iPad Pro 11 for years and loved that thing, especially with the Magic Keyboard case. However, in the last year, I've developed a side gig that requires me to regularly edit videos and photos. I don't mind Lightroom on iPad, but using iMovie has been a nightmare, and I don't love the...

    iPhone iMovie Major Issue

    iMovie ver 3.0, will not let you import large number of clips through the normal route with Moments-when you select a day that has say 100+ clips, it hangs and crashes. You can select each clip individually but that is a real pain. Never was an issue before. It's doing the same on MacOS...

    Other Anyone else bummed that iPhone 13's new cinematic mode isn't 4K?

    Cinematic Mode seems like such a fantastic tool for filmmakers, but most filmmakers shoot in 4K. I imagine the file sizes will be large though, and they'd be even larger with 4K. I also sincerely hope Apple enables post-shoot focus-editing in iMovie and Final Cut Pro this fall.

    iMovie dropped Sports Theme

    In the latest iMovie drop 10.2.4, they dropped the Sports Theme from Theme chooser. I hope this was a mistake. If anything they should put multiple sports themes in theme chooser. I heavily use this for multiple school sports for the kids.
