    Hey all, I am using "MPEG Tools" to edit my MPEG-2 file I captured from VHS. I play the video, pause where I want it to start and hit the "Start" button. Then I play near the end, hit pause, and hit the "end" button. Then I hit run. However, it always adds on a few more minutes. I've tried this several times. What the heck is going on?!

    To cut out the beginning and/or the end in Tmpg use the source range under the advanced tab.Ive tried using Mpeg tools to trim and it doesn't work very well at all.

    I would use AviSynth as an MPEG scalpel.

    The preview widow is off a little .
    What you do is open the video in VdubMpeg, and mark
    the start and end points and note the timecodes of both.
    then in TMPG cut& merge you TYPE IN the timecodes
    instead of using the slider.

    I try to open in vdub, and it says MPEG Import Filter: packet synchronization error. Does anyone know what this means?

    It usually means you are trying to open an MPEG-2 file in Virtual Dub. Try Virtual Dub mod.
