Problem 1: How to import an .m4v file (made in handbrake) into iMovie?
I was told that if I wanted to edit my DVD I had to convert it first with Handbrake, so I used Handbrake to convert my DVD and it became an .m4v file. But in Imovie I can't import that file, nor can I drag it from my deskboard into iMovie. Any suggestion what to do?
Problem 2: .m4v video won't import to iMovie
Handbrake ripped a personal video to .m4v format. iMovie doesn't recognize this file when I browse to import. Is there a work around?
Problem 3: Importing a Handbrake rip into iMovie?
I have been copying my DVD collection onto my computer using Handbrake with the AppleTV preset. For two movies, 21 and The Da Vinci Code, Handbrake had a tough time copying them at first and both movies play the first minute of the movie and then start over from the beginning. The movie is fine after that. Why am I not able to import these into iMovie'09? And if I can, would I be able to cut out the first minute of both of these files?
