Hi Guys

Today I bought my first Mac, a MacBook Pro and am so far loving it. However, one thing I wanted to do with it was movie editing, and sadly neither Quicktime or iMovie will not recognise the files from my Sony Handycam. They are MPEG-2 files, and the dialogue pointed me to the MPEG 2 component on the Apple Website. My question is: if i buy this component, will both Quicktime and iMovie be able to work with my files? Thanks very much for your time, sorry if this is a stupid question but I am very new to OS X.
