The Q.T. Format MUST be : DV/DVCPRO –NTSC 720 x 480 for me to get the Canopus to work If a client gives me a dvd only (no .mov file) then you can use MEDIAFORK to rip into an mpeg4 then import THAT into iMovieHD and save as (well-u cant actually SAVE as this but you CAN Export as: DV/DVCPRO-NTSC 720x480) Works for me.
