IOS 16 reproduces bugs, and movie effect video cannot be opened in Final Cut Pro and iMovie

IOS 16 has been online for a long time. During this time, we found a lot of bugs. Today, some netizens said that IOS 16 had another big bug. This bug would make movie effect videos unable to be opened in Final Cut Pro and iMovie, which would greatly affect users' editing. Let's take a look.

Today, 9To5Mac, a foreign media, said that a problem with iOS 16 would affect the video recorded in movie effect mode, making it impossible to open the video in iMovie and Final Cut Pro editing software.

According to reports on Apple's support forums and Reddit, Apple's own video editors, iMovie and Final Cut Pro, cannot open movie effect mode videos recorded with iPhones running iOS 16. The cause of the error is not clear at present, but the report consistently points out that when users try to edit movie effect mode videos, these applications will display the error of "unable to activate movie effect".

Home of IT learned that the movie effect mode is a function introduced by Apple in the iPhone 13/Pro series. With the movie effect mode, the camera of the iPhone 13/Pro series can record shallow depth of field video and smoothly change the focus, so that the video presents a movie like texture.

After taking a video in movie effects mode, users can edit the video in the Photos app on iPhone or other supported devices. For videos shot in movie effect mode, besides standard editing operations applicable to all videos, users can also adjust the depth of field and focus of videos.

Apple has not officially responded to this issue. The temporary solution is to edit movie effect videos on the iPhone, and then share these videos to the Mac through AirDrop.

The bug that movie effect videos cannot be opened in Final Cut Pro and iMovie has little impact on ordinary users, but it has a great impact on some video authoring users, so I hope Apple can fix this bug as soon as possible.
