basic editing problems with virtual dub

[morron]

Is easier to edit an Avi file than a Mpeg file?
I captured from my sony-TRV33 DV camcorder an avi file Type 1, then i tried to edit with virtualdub(just cut and join), but it did wrong(when i watch the edited video without (for) or (rew) it looks a sound good, but at the time i use them it loses the audio ),then i use Tmpenc and somehow the audio file is bigger than the video file. the don match. what should i do to fix the video, or maybe capture again using type II and use another edit program?

I would suggest capturing the file again, and this time in AVI format. This is the best format for editing in (MPEG has compression that sometimes can mess things up). Also, if you have a big hard drive, import in Uncompressed AVI, it makes editing so much easier!

Virtualdub is great for editing, but next time capture in Type II.
Uncompressed if you have the room.
