Watch MPEG Movies to iMovie on Mac with Smoothly

MPEG information: 

MPEG is actually a group, fully named as Moving Picture Experts Group, which is formed by ISO and IEC to set standards for audio and video compression and transmission. There are several different MPEG standards. Among those standards, MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-3 and MPEG-4 are very common ones. There are many different types, classes, and parts of the MPEG format. As a matter of fact, its development still continues until today. However, despite all such developments, MPEG-4 remains to be the most preferred video file format for movies that are stored on drives and played on discs. 

Have problem with importing MPEG videos from your camera into iMovie for further editing? Or may you have some MPEG files stored on your Mac and want to use them on iMovie? 

In fact, iMovie generally can recognize MPEG files. Take a loot at iMovie supported formats: 

 

However, if your MPEG files are muxed (multiplexed) MPEG-1 or MPEG-2 videos, iMovie won’t accept them because of the codec incompatibility. On this occasion, you need to convert MPEG format to iMovie compatible formats like MP4, MOV, M4V, etc.
