My Canon videorecorder creates AVCHD video clips. When I play them in QuickTime Player, they play cleanly. When I import them into iMovie, they have periodic "glitches" in the video, mainly along the upper edge. How can I import them cleanly? I'm using iMovie 10.1.9 and MacOS 10.13.4 on an iMac.

Hi,
After opening the clip in QuickTime Player, try saving to your desktop as a .mov file and then importing into iMovie.
If that doesn't work, try using the free download, Handbrake, to convert the clips to Mp4/ACC, and then import the converted clips into iMovie. Handbrake will make that conversion by default. That probably will do it.
