hi there, im looking for a programme to edit quick time movies. i want to import them into windows movie maker to edit them down, but cant seem to do so...

This should probably be in the Windows forum as it's about Windows Movie Maker.

"super" i think should be able to convert a quicktime file to an avi type file if you have all the right codecs installed

Irriverter is another program that might convert a quicktime file to something more compatible mpeg4

http://www.virtualdub.org/ should be able to edit avi file, maybe save a file as an uncompressed avi

Maybe the above will give you a file you can load into windows movie maker

If by editing you mean resize and cuttin down the bitrate you can bypass it by downloading a program especially designed to convert movies to the phone your using it

eg if you have a nokia smartphone download smartmovie and it will do the job with a click of a button and has lots of options as well

ImToo converts most video formats to 3GP

xilisoft 3gp converter should do it

You can get Goldwave and it will record whatever sound is currently playing. So hit record on Goldwave and play the video.
