Greetings! I have a few questions and hopefully someone can answer them. Keep in mind I don't own a Mac myself, so I can't just go and check to see if it works until tomorrow.
Movie:
1) How can I get a clip from muting itself after being dragged into the timeline? When I play it from the clip panel, it has it's sound. Yet it's when I drag it to the timeline, the sound it once had is now gone! Anyone know how to solve this puzzle? Just so you know I imported from a VHS recorder that has a small RGB monitor on top, that was hooked up to a Dazzle box. I heard the sound play on the Mac while importing the footage and this has never happened when I imported from my DVcam.
iDVD:
2) Is there a way for an Apple brand DVD-R, to play on a PC? I've tried this before and it doesn't work, be it a burned iDVD or a Data DVD. Now I also have a pack of recently brought Imation DVD-Rs. Would these disks offer cross-platform abilities right off the bat, or are there special settings within iDVD or Jaguar in general to make cross-platform compatible DVDs possible?
And some important facts:
-it's the college's Mac, so I can't access the Control Panel unless I have one of the IT Nazis unlock it.
-Since the afore mentioned IT Nazis haven't gotten the latest iLife software, iMovie is iMovie 3 and iDVD is stuck at iDVD 2. So I can't simply import my iMovie into iDVD until they DO update the whole iLife package (which is more then likely never).
I'd appreciate it very much. My father is doing a website and needs some video I shot to put on the site. And since there's nothing on the PC world that can touch iMovie and iDVD, that's what I'm using. Thanks in advance!
