Canon Vixia Hfm40 Software Download
I am brand new to the forum and after reading several posts about the AVCHD issues with the Mac, I was still confused. In fact, I had a one-on-one session at an Apple store with their Video expert, and it was as clear as mud to him too!
Here is my question - I Purchased a Canon Vixia HF20 the other day. Video looks great when plugged directly into my HDTV. Capturing video is not problem in iMovie '09 (I have an iMac 20' with Intel Duo Processor). I have imported the video in both the 940 X 560 format and 'Full Quality'. Again, no problems with either. HOWEVER, when I export the project to iDVD, the resulting burned DVD has signifiant jagged edges on fences, steel grates and power lines - you know, anything with straight edges. It is alos quite a bit fuzzier than I would expect it to be when outputting standard definition. In short, I was expecting the output tpo be at least as clear as my Canon Elura DV tape unit.
The guy at Apple said (guessed) it was a problem with the HD video being converted to interlaced video when taken to iDVD. He suggested two options (but was really unsure):
1) Get Toast 10 Titanium and you can set the import to progressive, OR
2) Buy the full version of Final Cut Pro for $1,000 (he said the Final Cut Express 4 would not help with the problem)
So, I am appealing to others who have likely already experienced the problem and found a solution. Can you tell me what the real problem is, and what the best solution is? I am willing to buy FCP and an external Blue-Ray burner, BUT, I do want to create videos on regular DVD too for family members who do not yet have Blue-Ray.
Thanks!!!!
