Or the only way to keep the spam away is security code?

We can. Our own method is still early and is improving all the time.

Can you go further into the disk image method? I've been having trouble with it.

Ben: I've been following this saga for a while, as I bought the HDR-UX1 and a new iMac last Christmas ('06). This is very disheartening because I've been waiting for some indication that Apple knows/cares about this, got excited when I heard that iMovie 08 included AVCHD, but now it seems this is it, they've left this camera behind .. I'm going to see if I can find somebody who can help me through your process to see if it's easier than it sounds.

One question: do you know if folks with the hard drive version of this camera are working easily with iMovie 08 .. if so, is it possible to hook up the UX1 to the hard drive version and transfer the content of the DVD onto the hard drive?

answer to my own question the UX1 can not directly transfer to the hard drive version SR series

Another reply to myself .. I was told yesterday (Nov. 5, 2007) by Apple that the HDR-UX1 will work in iMovie '08 as long as you have Leopard .. bought Leopard and iMovie '08 last night and will let you know ..

it works .. big relief .. would recommend also having Final Cut Express .. you'll need iMovie'08 to get the video in, but then you'll want to edit the 1080 Quicktime files in FCE if you want full quality .. iMovie '08 is fine for lesser mediums as long as you understand it is a new product and not an update

That's a bit depressing. I can't get this to work at all. Have iMovie 08 installed on a nice new iMac I bought a few months ago. Was encouraged to upgrade to Leopard after seeing the compatibility list. However, post upgrade I still see the same thing:
- Connect HDR UX1 via usb
- Go through the camera menu to connect to the mac
- Untitled DVD icon appears on mac desktop
- Camera stuck at Connecting...

Opening the untitled disc in finder shows nothing but the Burn icon is enabled.

The content on the disc itself is only in SD but that shouldn't matter should it? If it does . . . how do I get SD content on to the mac?

Any suggestions on what I might be missing? Connecting via USB using the Sony supplied USB cable btw.
