Q. when I import video from my sony handycam digital disk camcorder into imovie, the film clips are always out of sequence. for example, when recording a basketball game, I get the clips showing up in imovie out of sequence from the actual game. is there something I can do to correct that?
A. Maybe you don't have the right codecs installed.
How do you import video from your camcorder to iMovie HD?
Q. My dad and I are trying to make a movie and we have video on the camcorder but every time we plug it in, iPhoto just pops up with all of the pictures that are on the camcorder. Any help?
And Little Dog, how do you disable the automatic pop up in iPhoto? I went to preferences but couldn't find it...

A. Which camcorder are you using?
Which Mac are you using?
If you are using a miniDV or Digital 8 tape based camcorder, you need to import the video using firewire. The firewire cable did not come in the box with the camcorder. USB will not work. USB is used ONLY to transfer stills from the memory card.
If you are using a hard disc drive (HDD) or flash memory camcorder, you need to disable iPhoto's "automatic pop-up" (in iPhoto's preferences), and let the HDD or flash memory mount like any other external mass storage device. Copy the files to the Mac - and you probably will need to convert the highly compressed MPEG2 files using StreamClip available from apple's downloads area.
If you are using a DVD based camcorder, you will need a drawer loading DVD drive (I like the ones from LaCie). Download and install HandBrake to rip the video from the finalized DVD. NEVER put a small (8cm) or odd-shaped optical disc in a slot loader...
Analog camcorders (Beta, VHS, VHS-C, Video8, Hi8) with a DSC function will also only transfer photos over USB. You need an analog/digital bridge like those from Canopus to convert from analog to digital video.
