Do you have some media files that are .MP4 extensions? And they are not imported into iMovie'09? Why this happens? iMovie supports MP4, MOV and DV video files, so as a widely used video format in .MP4, it should be imported and further edited in iMovie without problem. I tried several methods to solve the problem. Using Handbrake to convert MP4 to MP4 but could't import into iMovie, tried to convert MP4 to MOV with MPEG Streamclip getting an "Audio Decoding Error". Perhaps there is something wrong with the audio track in the MP4 video, the audio in the .mp4 file is AAC.
Finally, I purchased a Movie Converter for Mac recommended by one of my friends. The program can handle MP4 files well with excellent output quality.
