Title: How Do You Post A Video On You Tube?
Description: Help!

I'm trying to post a video on you tube but the file is 22 minutes long and I only want to post about 5 minutes of it from the middle.
I've never done this before. Is there anyone out there that can give me specific instructions on how to edit and post this video.
I would really appreciate it.
Thank you.

Hi yoli,
What format is the video? What is the extension?

I'm not very computer savy. But I got this info from the properties

format-MPEG-Layer 3

Don't know what you mean by extension.
I have "Windows Movie Maker" on my computer but I keep on getting an error when I try to import it. I think it's because of the file name but I don't know how to change it to .avi or whatever would be acceptable to the program. :blink: :angry: Very frustrating!

You're right on; it's likely not importing because it doesn't like the file type. Windows Movie Maker can import only WMV files or captured DV-AVI files. Other file types need to be converted. Here's a page that may show how:

Converting MPEG files

It looks horrific...lol. But useful info. I probably can help out with this one project of yours, just upload it to savefile.com then tell me exactly what to edit out.
