after years of PC went to a Mac... for the most part, I love it, except for a few things i will have to learn or get used to... <BR> <BR>I was so stoked to get iMovie. i have used older versions before and loved the ease of use. for what i do, iMovie is more than enough... <BR> <BR>HOWEVER. iMovie 08 is a big let down. anyone else with this program? <BR> <BR>No slow mo/fast mo/ rewind... not allowing chapters when making a DVD... and a few other things that were on older versions.... <BR> <BR>will there be updates to fix this, or do i have to accept version 07 that apple is offering to us? <BR> <BR>thanks

Call Apple and demand your money back!

IMO iMovie 6 (HD) is a far better program, especially if you're doing any Wakeboarding video and want to show slow motion. Apple needs to realize that this is a big disappointment and hopefully an update in the near future will add more functionality to iMovie 8. <BR> <BR>(Message edited by deltawake on March 19, 2008)

also... my import from my pani agdv30 looks like crap.. on imovie and on idvd. i am reading online people having similar problems in imovie 06 and 08... their "solutions" are not working for me. <BR> <BR>I am getting frustrated with my new purchase...

got iMovie 06 HD for free and imported some video from my pani and the quality was a little better. I am currently burning a short video on iDVD to test the quality when played on my TV...

I would say Final Cut Express, i'm sure there wont be a let down there. I never have used it but i use FCP daily and its great.

Get FC Express... find a student ID and get the student price online .... I think it's $150... I teach at a high school with it and it's great. Far more control and options fo
