VideoPier Review
VideoPier is a Mac application developed by Aquafadas in the Music & Video category. It is designed to allow users to watch MPEG2 clips from their camcorders directly on their Mac. With VideoPier, users can import and export movies, preview videos on their Mac, and it is compatible with iMovie '08. The application is available as a trial version.
VideoPier provides a convenient way to play MPEG2 files from camcorders on a Mac. Once the camcorder is connected to the Mac and the application is open, users can easily preview their videos directly from the VideoPier interface. The application offers both an embedded player and full-screen viewing options.
In addition to previewing videos, VideoPier also allows users to copy files from their camcorder to their Mac and import clips for later use. The application can export videos to the appropriate Quicktime format, making it easy to use the videos in other applications such as iMovie. However, it is worth noting that VideoPier only supports exporting to Quicktime format and does not offer a wide range of video formats to choose from.
For users of iMovie '08, VideoPier offers the ability to export clips directly to the application and even create events for them beforehand, ensuring that clips are already organized in iMovie '08. Overall, VideoPier is a niche product that serves its purpose of allowing users to play MPEG2 camcorder clips on their Mac. It is particularly useful for those who frequently use their camcorder and iMovie.
