    I have a Cannon that takes HD movies in .MOV format. I'm using Ubuntu Studio (based on lucid). What do I need to do to convert these files to ANYTHING that I can edit? It seems most editors will read them, but playback (while editing) is slowed down and not in real time. I tried Kino, but it converts it to .dv, which turns it from 1280 x 720 to 720 x 480.

    I'm playing around with KDEnlive, but having the same problem with SLOW playback when editing (.mov) files. I have AVIdemux, but don't know what options to set to get a file out that I can edit.

    Any ideas?

    Use mencoder to convert from .MOV to .avi
    Code:
    mencoder file.MOV -oac copy -ovc copy -o file.avi
