Answer 2 out of 2
 
A:

No, I need to save back to MiniDV. Here's why...

I initially set out to make QuickTime movies for upload to youtube and I was successful at that. I store my backups on a Buffalo RAID.

Now I want to submit my work to public access television (cable) and the only formats they will accept are:

• S-VHS (SP / standard play, 2-hour speed only) 

• BetaSP • MiniDV • DV/DVCPRO/DVCAM

 

 

They will not accept programs provided on VHS, VHS-C, Hi-8, 3/4 SPUmatic,

or DVD.

 

 

Tapes must begin with 60 seconds of uninterrupted video, prior to the start of the actual program (pre-roll).

 

This video can be any combination of color bars (30 seconds), countdown (10 seconds), or black (10 seconds).

 


iMovie 6.03 has this feature available in the file menu/Export/Videocamera/Share.


It even offers you a field to place from 0-60 seconds of black before and after the exported video so it MUST be designed to fulfil the exact need that I have. 


The problem is that the function simply does not work for me! And from what I have read, Apple has had so much trouble with this that they got rid of the feature completely.
