Hi all. I am new to this forum (or any for that matter) so forgive me if I
am not following protocol.

I have a Panasonic DMC-FZ18 for wildlife pics, and some videos. I have been
able to convert the .mov files to .avi, and would like to be able to select
a section to save, rather than the whole video. My 24 sec video occupies
30MB at current resolution, and I only want about 5 seconds of it. Any
suggestions?

Thanks
allan

You'd be better served on a camcorder group.. But yes is the correct
answer.

Windows box? Then open up Windows Movie Maker and have a play
around. You''ll work it out. You set start and end points, and also
save at different resolution/quality.

You could also convert the AVI file to MPG (eg TMPgenc) which will dro
the file size
