Why is that FCE, which is more advanced--has to render when iMovie doesn't have to? Is it because I have a setting in FCE wrong? I just can't believe that a simple program like iMovie (Even Pinnacle Studio doesn't render) doesn't have to render stuff when editing, only when you export your final project. Am I doing something wrong? If not, how do people edit video like thaT?
