avi to dv

newmacguy2 · May 31, 2003

Other than Quicktime Pro, how can I convert avi files to DV files. I want to edit them in IMovie.

Thanks,
Dave

There is a program called avi to mov, check for it on versiontracker. It doesn't work with all avi codecs though...

Thanks for the info. Pardon my ignorance, but I end up with a mov file. I want the file to be something I can open in Imovie. Any suggestions?

btv (may need the pro version) will convert from pretty much any format to any other format, including DV streams
