it appears that you can have both as both seem to be running simultaneously - HD6 looks a better package with tons and tons of features for titles, transitions and effects.

iMovie 6HD is the older version of that which you've probably got with iLife 08.
It's a free download from Apple but I thought you couldn't have both versions installed at the same time...

a quick update

popped into the apple store in meadow hell on saturday, spoke to the guys there who were really helpful, they suggested before i spend any coin that i down loaded imovies HD6, its not as quick as the standard imovies but has tons more features, done that now currently messing about about with clips and tunes
will let you know if its any good laters and maybe even try to post a short movie if its any good

if not will go for the FCP express

Nopes not possible, idvd doenst make any movies it just sticks exsisting movies in a dvd format and helps you burn them to disk. It doesn't have an export function as thats not what it was made for. Its kind of like asking why you cant draw pictures in internet explorer, its just not that kind of programme

Not a Mac user but i know abit about Quicktime and i would of thought you could export iDVD to Quicktime. You can then load up Mov's to youtube etc.

A google search provides these links:

thanks you guys for your quick response,

i think i need to test drive some of the software, there is an apple store near me which i think i will pop into and see if i can have a look at the FCP lite version.

if i like it and it does what i want it to i will then see how i obtain it - probably get suckered into buying it there and then

Does it have to be legit software ?
If not, hit any of the BitTorrent type sites or sign up for Newsgroups.

If it does, go to the Apple Store website, click "Chat", tell them you need Software like Final Cut and that you're a student. Watch the price tumble

Yeah Final Cut Pro is over kill if you just want to do some editing at home, i've been using it at work for 4 years or so and i still dont get half the features, its a huge programme. Final Cut Express is the way forward, it will have more than enough features for you.

Merv

You can also try Final Cut Express HD which is a cut down version of FCP.

FCE 4.0 currently goes at £129.

I have a copy (legit) of FCE 3.5 I could let you have for a reasonable offer, and you could upgrade to FCE 4 for £65.

Azzie I'm gonna jump on your bandwagon as this is vaguely related

recently bought a mac and started to mess about with movie editing,

have been using some free download stuff on my PC but thought that i would give a mac a go after listening to all the hype and getting p*ssed off with the PC continually crashing.

Now iDVD is easy to use but i want more features, effects etc etc, I was advised by a bloke i know who has recently tossed it off at uni for 4 years on some media course or other to get adobe premier or final cut pro
easy thinks me, however this software costs around £800.00!!!!!!!!

Advice on something better than imovie but won't force me to sell the mac to buy it please

I don't seem to have the option to 'Import Movies' when I select the file to import it I get an error message:

The file could not be imported: The file “Macintosh HD/Users/alextaylor/Desktop/Dani and Niges Wedding.dvdproj” can’t be imported; QuickTime couldn’t parse it: -1409
