I'm disappointed that the new iMovie 3.0.1 suddenly made my PowerBook G4 (800 Mhz) feel old. I normally zip through iMovie 2 but this latest version turned my PowerBook into a dinosaur. Not only that but iMovie 3 appears to require rendering of photos through the Ken Burns effect even for simple placement on the timeline. In iMovie 2 you just placed the photos without wasting time rendering, making the laying out and transitioning of photos faster. You also were able to adjust the time on screen of the photo clip by entering seconds:frames. This is crucial for timing the appearance of photos with a music track or a voice-over. The current method of setting the time, rendering, resetting the time and re-rendering it too cumbersome. I hope they come out with a faster revision and fix that photo placement method.
I think I'll stick with iMovie 2 for awhile. -- Esver Camacho mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Gold Coast Macintosh Users Group http://www.gcmac.org -- PowerBooks is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
