I'm trying to cut down a video that my friend shot with his GoPro on the weekend, and I don't seem to be having much luck with it as far as quality goes. The video is 30 minutes long, takes up 1.76 gb of space, and I want to chop the first 5 minutes and the last 7 minutes from it. I've tried using the Windows Movie Maker software installed on my computer, but it can't edit an MP4, so I converted it into a .wmv file. When I went to import it into the program, it was too big so the computer said no. I then downloaded Pinnacle Video Spin from the interwebz, and it let me cut the video down where I wanted, but the play back quality sucks.
So here's the question, what are you guys using for this? I've seen some great quality video's made here that have been shot from a GoPro, so I figured this would be a good place to start.
Thanks,
KJ
