Follow these steps to cut an AVI video:
- Go to 'File' → 'Open video file…'
- Once opened, we need to mark the start and the end of the videofile. Use the slider to go the the first frame you want to keep.
- Click the 'Mark In' button
- Use the slider to go the the last frame you want to keep.
- Click the 'Mark Out' button
- Notice on the slider bar the gray area between the mark in and mark out points. This indicates the part we'll keep.
- Go to 'Video' and select the option 'Direct Stream Copy'
- Go to 'Audio' and select the option 'Direct Stream Copy'
- Go to 'File' → 'Save as AVI'
- VirtualDub will now start saving the selected part and will display a new window to keep you informed on the progress.
