Groan, groan... this is probably a commonly asked question. But is there anything I can do in iMovie 2 to make it look better? Its all pixelated. I'm using the font "Times" like i was told to, but it is still pixelated. Please help!

just finished (well, almost) my first "reel" movie in imovie, and...same problem.
otherwise, an amazing app! (my girlfriend, a pro filmmaker, uses final cut pro...and was impressed!)

so, same question...

This is a known issue and fixed in iMovie 3 or 4...but after burning to DVD it is rendered correctly.
