    • ]]>     Ok, you ended up with iMovie 09 somehow, but need to get your movie onto a miniDV tape. How will you do this? 09 seems to have dispensed with the “export/save to camera” option that older versions had.



    After a bunch of trial and error, here’s how I was able to get the job done.

    1. Export your movie as a DV Stream (your_movie.dv)
    2. Move that .dv file to a Mac that has a different version of iMovie (HD is what my friend had)
    3. Create a new iMovie project that is compatible with the camera you plan to export to (I think iMovie HD was defaulting to an HD format, which my (borrowed) camera didn’t support, so I had to do this twice).
    4. Import your_movie.dv into the new project, and make sure it’s in the timeline. (this step was much slower than I expected, for a 1 minute video, it took ~ 7 minutes, so anything significant might be painful)
    5. Save/Export to camera…

    Always double check that the tape has the video, and that it’s formatted properly, audio, aspect ration, etc.
