Hi first thread on emug!
I currently edit my home movies on iMovie HD 06, uploading through my rather old vid camera via the fire wire. But when i tried my friends Sony with a USB connection iMovie failed to recognise the camera so was unable to download any video footage.
Yet when I watched the apple video on the website demonstrating the new iLife08 the guy connected up a Panasonic hard disk camera via the USB???
Is this possible on 06? or just the new 08 software?
A trip to the local electrical store last week proved fewer vid cameras are coming with firewire and USB seems to be the norm??? So can I upgrade to a new camera with USB with confidence that it will sync with imovie no problems???
