    Brief summary: you don't.

     

    You can process the video into a format that iPhoto understands first and then add it to a slideshow. This is best one with iMovie and for more on that, check the iMovie forum.

     

    A note on AVCHD: This format was developed for people who are shooting to edit the material afterwards. If you're shooting to edit, then iMovie or Final Cut are the correct home for this material. If you're not shooting to edit consider using one of the other video formats on your Camera.
