Use Final Cut Pro or Final Cut Express for theatrical length movies. iMovie 09 is more for consumers doing home video.

Does anyone know what the different number codes mean? Does this mean my project is too long? Right now it is 1:21:45. i have cut out about all that I can but would try more if I am close. Or is a -48 a different problem altogether. Thanks.

Televisions January 1st, 2011 By Gary Write comment This post shows you how to configure the Apple iMovie09 movie creation software to export a movie that you can play in High Def (HD - 1920 x 1080) on your Samsung television The newer (~2010) Samsung LCD and LED televisions have the ability to play music, photos and video from a directly attached USB devices.  This allows people to store photos, music and videos on a USB key or USB hard drives and then attach to the TV for playback.  As well, many people now have cameras and cellular phones that record video in High Definition (HD).  This means you can easily play your home made HD video in HD on your TV. On a recent business trip to India, I took lots of photos and video.  Using iMovie09, I created a nice travel video showcasing all the places I visited.  It had a mix of still photos, HD video, regular definition video (SD) and music.   India is a beautiful country,  so I really really wanted to show the movie in HD.  I don't have a Blu-Ray disc burner, so my only option is to export the movie from iMovie onto my 8gig USB key and then plug the USB key into the Samsung TV for playback. Here are the steps: Construct your movie using iMovie. Click:  SHARE -> EXPORT USING QUICKTIME Use the settings shown in the image below: In the Samsung TV user manual, there is a table titled "Supported Video Formats".  This is an excellent table (thank you Samsung).  It lists the various movie formats, resolution, frame rate, bit rate and audio codecs supported. For 1920 x 1080 resolutions with HD encoding (25Mbps), Samsung supports the following formats: AVI (H.264 BP/MP/HP) WMV (Windows Media Video v9) MP4 (H.264 BP/MP/HP) TS/TP/TRP I created some 15second movies in each format.  The Samsung TV only recognized the MP4 format. NOTE #1 - Issue with iMovie 09 and error code 2125 My video was only 34 minutes long.  I have 200Gig free on
