Changing the file format on digi camera....

[GR7]

Can someone please tell me how I can either change the format of a video clip I made on my camera that is at present in AVI format and 123MB in size, to someone smaller and isn't too big to put on YouTube.

It has to be less than 100MB and is still in my camera so I can redownload it if someone can please help!!

I wanted to email it to my friend as it's her son but it said it has to be up to 16MB (it's 123MB)

Thanks if anyone wants to help me please!

Have you tried windows movie maker ? Shrinking it down from 123mb to 16mb might affect the quality of the video . You could always split the video into a few parts and keep the quality .

What does this mean that someone wrote the other day Dash?

"Encode it with h264 and it'll probably end up about 15/20 mb."

You have to remember I am a blonde female!

He means for your to get a program which converts using H 264.

Open Windows Movie Maker.

Import the video in question, when it starts processing it click cancel right away (this just tries to be clever and break it down into parts).

Then add the whole thing to the timeline (at the bottom).

On the left click Save to my Computer. And try High quality video - Large. That will still shink AVI files down bigtime, otherwise try different options or break it in 2 and send it as 2 parts.
