Apple Releases iLife Support, iDVD, iPhoto, iMovie, GarageBand Updates

I guess we have different quality standards.

iMovie's improper handling of DV is widely discussed in different sites and forums . Just couple of examples:

I can understand removing interlaced fields on real time playback, but why should they do it on export. Most of modern DV cameras have progressive mode. iMove 08 seems to make no difference and removes lines also from non-interlaced video. As the software is capable of handling HD, there shouldn't be any performance issues why they should cut out half of the lines.

And DV looks great with my mbp.

It's not imovie, it's your hard drive or your camcorder.

iPhoto update crashes new MBP!!!

The last 2 times I tried to install the iphoto update it gets hung up at about 50% and I have to do a hard shut down. This sucks!! Anyone have any similar issues?

Unusable

For the first time in my life Apple have let me down.

7.1 freeze after 30 seconds or so and is completely unusable. iPhoto 7.1 works fine until I try to select Preferences and then freezes.

I'm using a dual 2.0 G5.

Well thank you Apple. Somehow they managed to make iPhoto slower with this update. It now takes 5-7 seconds to open iPhoto and there is a lag even when I close it. All I have in this library is 700 or so picts. The same behavior is in all 4 libraries I have. No addins. Rebooted. Ran a permissions check. Are these people incompetent?

Have your reported your issues to Apple on the support site? I'm sure there is something unique about either the library or your configuration that obviously wasn't part of the test program. After all, its not like the kind of performance you are reporting is the same as others.

I upgraded and iPhoto still scrolls like butter. And my library have over 1800 photos.
