Hey Everyone!

I'm looking for a little help with an Automator for converting .AVI files from a Casio Digital Camera into a movie format that is recognized by iMovie '08. I've been able to create a workflow that searches the pictures folder for any .avi file and converts it to .mov with Quicktime, but there are two problems.

1. I can't seem to find an option to convert the file into the original director and delete the original .avi file.
2. The date-stamp that I use in iPhoto is changed to the current date
3. iPhoto and iMovie don't automatically recognize the new files. I have to import the file into iPhoto, and then iMovie will ad it to my list.

Can anyone help?
