Thanks for the tip. That was one way to getting it done! Quicktime takes a little longer but it will work until I can figure out what changed in my exports.

I have been importing my final cut pro movies to IMOVIE to convert the large file size to an m4v file, via the &quot;export to Itunes&quot; option The process has worked great and I can upload some great quality (yet very small file size) videos to vimeo.<br />
<br />
As of late, when I try to import my movies into imovie, the files are grayed out and I cannot select them to import. As far as know I am not doing anything different on the Final Cut Pro end.<br />
<br />
The previous movies that I have successfully imported into Imove are not greyed out but any new movies that I create are. I am puzzled.<br />
<br />
As always, in final cut pro I export the movie as follows<br />
<br />
&gt;File &gt;&nbsp;Export Movie &gt;&nbsp;Setting&gt; DV NTSC 48 kHZ<br />
<br />
I don't know why all of a sudden the movies cannot be imported into Imovie

Digital audio is technology that can be used to record, store, generate, manipulate, and reproduce sound using audio signals encoded in digital form. Following significant advances in technology, digital rapidly replaced analog audio technology in most areas. Digital audio systems may include compression, storage, processing and transmission components. It is important to distinguish between the audio coding format, the codec performing the encoding and decoding of the raw audio data, and the container file. Common file formats include .wav, .aiff, .au, .m4a, .mp3, .wma, .ra and .raw.
