It will scan the file, then you can choose what settings you want to use (defaults are fine-sometimes I switch to 'high profile' in the 'Toggle Presets' pane), and click Start. In Handbrake, click on 'Source,' and choose the. these are all ripoffs of ffmpeg, a free and open source video transcoding library. and it's free! Don't pay any money for fancy GUI wrappers like the ones you'll find on, ,, etc. The easiest way to do this, in my experience, is to use Handbrake, the best/simplest transcoding software you can get on the Mac.

If you have the files on your camcorder or an SD card from your camcorder, you can just open up iMovie '08 or iMovie '09 and click 'import from camera.' It'll take forever to transcode the files into something iMovie can use, but it will work. These files are AVCHD high-definition video files from consumer-grade HD video cameras, and they've traditionally been a pain to work with.
