Hello

I got a serie and i want to cut out the Opening and the Endings
But
When I use VirtualDub i selected the 2min clipp and then clicked save as AVI.. The regulare file was like 200mb ... and this clip thats just a little bit of the whole file gets 2gb LARGE!?!?!?

Why?? How do i make it smaller?

ehrm,

Just select "Direct stream copy" from the video menu....

If you don't it just saves an uncompressed .avi file.
