Flip Video now works with iMovie 08! Anybody else discover this?
It looks like I’m going to have to thankfully amend a previous post about the Flip Video and issues with iMovie08. We are documenting some remodeling work around my house this summer using my Flip Video Camera, (not the new Mino which looks really cool…) and when I plugged it into my Macbook running Leopard I was able to directly import my movies from the Flip into iMovie08! It even worked on my iMac running Tiger (OSX 10.4.11).
Previously, I needed a video converter like iSquint or Visual Hub to convert the .avi files on the Flip into a format that iMovie08 would recognize. I guess one of the latest software updates from Apple solved this problem…has anybody else had success with this issue?
There is a nice video review of the flip over at Macworld.

I’m glad to hear it works. I’ve already told some teachers about the Flip based on your recommendation.
