    Tools: Virtualdub or Virtualdub MP3 Freeze or Nandub or if joining/cutting ASF use Virtualdub 1.3c and the ASF Codecs ( MP43 (Microsoft High-Speed MPEG-4 V3).

    How to Cut a DivX/AVI file

    This guide explains how to cut a DivX, XVID, ASF or an AVI without reconverting it. It will only take a few minutes to split a DivX/AVI. It works fine to cut a DivX, XVID with AC3 audio also.

    Install and start Virtualdub (extract all files to a folder and run the virtualdub.exe file).
    Open the video, File->Open video file

    If a window popups and says that VBR audio stream detected you must use Virtualdub MP3 Freeze or Nandub or you will get audio sync problem. Install Virtualdub MP3 Freeze/Nandub and follow these steps again. If you don't get this message you can continue with this guide.


    Select under Audio->Direct Stream Copy.
    Select also under Video->Direct Stream Copy.
    Select the first part by(see image below):
    1. Drag the bar to the start
    2. Select Start
    3. Drag the bar to the end
    4. Select End
    Last save the the new clip with File->Save as AVI. It will only take some few minutes to cut the DivX/AVI.
    When it is done select the other part of the video the same way and save it as new file.



    How to Join DivX/AVI files

    Note! The videoclips must have same resolution, bitrates, codecs and so or else it wont work. It will only take a few minutes to merge DivX/AVI files, no reencoding required.

    Install and start Virtualdub (extract all files to a folder and run the virtualdub.exe file).
    Open the first videoclip, File->Open video file

    If a window popups and says that VBR audio stream detected you must use Virtualdub MP3 Freeze or you will get audio sync problem. Install Virtualdub MP3 Freeze and follow these steps again. If you don't get this message you can continue with this guide.


    Select File->Append Video Segment to open and add other videoclips. Repeat this step until you have add all you videoclips.
    Select under Audio->Direct Stream Copy.
    Select also under Video->Direct Stream Copy.
    Lasthit File->Save AVI and save the new joined movieclip.



    Problems
    I can't open ASF files. Be sure to use Virtualdub 1.3c cause newer versions of Virtualdub do not support ASF and be sure to install the ASF Codecs ( MP43 (Microsoft High-Speed MPEG-4 V3).

    If a window popups and says that VBR audio stream detected you must use Virtualdub MP3 Freeze or Nandub or you will get audio sync problem. Install Virtualdub MP3 Freeze/Nandub and follow these steps again. If you don't get this message you can continue with this guide.
