iMovie just works well with your own video footage, not existing movies. iMovie HD normally converts to DV for editing within. iMovie '08, however, does not perform conversion on file imports (only camcorder imports) assuming the user will only import files in the compression format in which he or she wants to do the actual editing. DivX/Xvid are not meant to be “edit" compatible with iMovie '08/'09 and that's why you need converting to a format meant to be edited in imovie'08/'09, like mov (m4v, ,dv,hdv,mp4,etc.)
