    Hello

    I have a Origin ATC2K Camera that I attach to well everything.

    The thing is I use it when I am out doing sports, like when i went Jet Skiing, or when I play airsoft, i cannot turn it off while in use as my hands are busy doing the sport so I cannot pause to cut out the bad boaring bits.

    I need to be able to edit the videos

    take the good bits from the beggining and combine with the end and cut out the crap in between

    Does anyone know of a good , pref free program that can edit .Avi and possibly .mov also.

    Thanks

    If it is XviD or DivX based .avi, you can edit without re-encodes using:

    SolveigMM AVI Trimmer (freeware)

    http://www.solveigmm.com/?Products&id=AVITrimmer

    It works well to edit footage from the likes of a Flip video camera. You will be stuck with limited audio editing options, but video works fine.

    A simple, but logical and easy to use application.
