iMovie 1.1 for iOS Adds 4th-Generation iPod Touch Compatibility, Video Clip Splitting, and More


With the new fourth-generation iPod touch launching today, Apple has released an update to its iMovie application for iOS, adding compatibility for the new device to the existing support for iPhone 4. The updates also adds several new features, including the ability split video clips, automatic music looping, and more.

What's new

- Compatible with iPod touch (4th generation).
- Ability to split video clips.
- Automatic music looping when video extends beyond music track.
- Scrub to preview clips in Video Browser.
- In-app Tips page that illustrates how to use key features.
- Updated Photos Browser with newest images at top.
- Mute badge to indicate video clips with audio disabled.
- Additional performance and reliability improvements.

iMovie, priced at $4.99, debuted in late June for the iPhone 4, offering users the ability to edit footage shot on their devices without having to transfer it to a computer. A number of filmmakers quickly demonstrated how films could be easily shot and edited entirely on the iPhone 4.

I love this app. Update was much needed and welcomed. Not surprising that they made it 4.1 only.

Yes, we can split clips now!!!

Hey, anyone find a way to change the location of the place you're at in the travel theme? It keeps choosing a Boring, OR instead of Multnomah Falls. I then try to input Multnomah Falls but it looks like you're only allowed to show locations from their city/location database. Any way around this?

Bummer! Requires iOS 4.1.
I was wondering why the update wasn't showing up on my iPhone.

Anyone know why iMovie isn't available for the iPad?

I have the camera connection kit and my digital camera records h.264 video, so it would be awesome to edit it on my iPad and post my crap to youtube.

Ohh wait, or is it because iPad has iOS 3?

Excellent. When I bought this I was astonished that it couldn't split clips. It made it completely useless.

You've always been able to change the location for the travel and news themes: double tap the clip, type in the location. Done. I have typed in locations that are not in the default database of locations: what happens when you do this?

I've always been able to tap the text in the clip itself, and then I can edit it and put in any location I want. Using the actual location search has never been correct.
