Apple software is really strange. iMovie 08 is a completely different program from iMovie 06 and you lose an amazing number of features. One big thing is the loss of chapter markets (!!!). You actually have to use an entirely different product Garageband in order to get them back as “imovie8.blogspot.com”:http://imovie08.blogspot.com/2007/08/how-to-add-chapter-markers.html explains
If we didn’t have this Sony DCR-SR100 which only iMovie 08 reads natively and if iMovie 06 conversion by Visualhub from MPEG-2 to DV didn’t look so bad, I’d have given up on it all.
Right now I’d have to say the best option for now is to keep using iMovie 06 unless you have some hard disk camcorder, then you should probably go to PC software like Sony Vegas.
