Q: Tagging camera archive files imovie
Since a few weeks I own a Sony HD camera, recording to SD card. Once in a while I will have to unload the videos from this card to my iMac. Fortunately iMovie has the "Archive all" feature to do this, storing the clips from the SD card into a camera archive as individual files per clip. Over time, however, this will become an unmanageable bunch of clips and finding the right clips to compose a video would require a lot of work going through all of them. Is there a way to tag these clips, just as you would do with photo's ? Importing would then be a lot easier by first finding all clips matching certain criteria. So far I have not been able to find such a feature in iMovie itself.
iMac, Mac OS X (10.6.8), iMovie '11
