Quicktime Player 10.0/iMove 8.0.6 not able to read MPEG-2 1080HD Linear PCM Video
I shot an hour's worth of 1440x1080 HD video with Codecs: MPEG-2 Video, Linear PCM, timecode and a bit rate of 26,535. When I try to play the video on my Macbook Pro using QuickTime Player 10.0, I get a message that says "The movie "Video Name" can't be opened. You may need to install additional software to open this type of file."
When I try to import the video into iMovie 8.0.6 (iMovie '09) by dragging the video icon from the desktop into the Project window of iMovie, the icon snaps back to the desktop without importing into iMovie.
How can I format the video file to be compatible with these 2 applications without losing any video quality?
Thanks for your help.
MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.8), 2.53Ghz Core Duo 500 GB HD
