my Samsung video footage is not compatible with iMovie. I have tried converting the clips to MP4 but it still doesn’t work. Help!

Is there a way to edit video from a Samsung camcorder in iMovie? I’ve Tried converting the clips to MP4 files but I always just get the spinning color wheel.

Cinematic Mode Editing option not showing on MacBook Pro I have a new MacBook Pro running Monterey 12.3.1 and iMovie 10.3.2 I airdropped my cinematic mode video clip to a folder and opened it in iMovie. The cinematic editing mode does not appear. I tried the opt cmd open iMovie suggestion and it didn’t fix it. My iPhone 13 ProMax allows me to edit the videos in iMovie for my iPhone. But no such luck on my Mac. Any other fix suggestions?

iMovie degrades a 1080p resolution screen recording to 720p after import. I've been recording screen captures using both QuickTime and CMD+Shift+5, which gives me crisp 1080p 60fps videos. When I import those clips into iMovie for editing, however, the image quality is noticeably worse and only allows for 720p resolution (both in the timeline and after export). Does anyone know how I can retain the quality of these clips so that I can edit in iMovie? As it currently stands, iMovie is unusable and my only other option is to use the unedited footage, which is not ideal. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
