Flip Video Editor for Mac

These days I did some research about Flip video camcorder and found many users are confused when they want to edit their favourite videos recorded by Flip video camcorder (including Flip Ultra, Flip Ultra HD, Flip Video Mino, Flip Video Mino HD and the newly released member Flip SlideHD) for whatever reason the met.

Flip video editing, iMovie, FCP, Adobe Premiere Pro say NO

As for Mac users, iMovie, FCP or Adobe Premiere Pro are probably the most frequently used editing programs. However, when you import your Flip videos directly into any of them, then the most possible things is nothing happens. Why? File compatibility problem. Usually, Flip video camcorders shoot videos in MP4 or H.264 which can’t be accepted by any of them directly. Such importing failures are no rare, just have a look the following example.

“I normally use Adobe Premier Pro CS3 for video editing.

I would like to do some editing of video from a Flip camera. This footage doesn’t seem to import to Premiere. So is there a good editor that will support Flip video natively, without too much extra hassle?”

FlipShare sometimes quit

FlipShare is an editing software pro-loaded with every Flip video camcorder which promised to make organizing, creating and sharing Flip videos in a simple way. But it proved to be not as good and powerful as it should be for whatever reasons maybe, it just quit its job. The following conditions may happen someday if you want to edit your Flip videos with it, just go with me.

“I like to make videos with my friend and I got a Flip Ultra for Christmas but Flip doesn’t work with my editor and I can’t really do anything cool with FlipShare, so I am looking to buy a new editor.

What I want to mare sure is that FlipShare will work with it.”
