Hello,

I am transferring my wedding VHS video to DVD.  I am using a Canon 
ZR10, iMovie3, G4/1GHZ.  After transferring the video to my camera and 
then to iMovie, I get a video static on the bottom 2% of the movie.  
The video doesn't show this, but it does after transferring.  I made 
sure that I use the 60 minute speed vs. 90 minute speed of my camera.  
The DV tapes that I used were brand new.  I cannot think of what would 
be causing this.

BTW, I also tried Final Cut Pro 3.0.4 and the same things happens.

This was a professionally created VCR Tape of my wedding, this may 
sound goofy, but is there any type of copy protection that could have 
been used that would prevent me from copying it?

Any ideas?  Thanks in advance.
