I am going to be recording some TV shows using my capture card and then encoding them into xvid files. I need a program to remove commercial breaks from them. It would also be usuful to get rid of any junk I record before the show comes on, and after. Does anyone have any suggestions for programs I can use?
Try Avidemux. Drag the AVI onto the window. Set Video, Audio and Format as shown. Use the slider and the A/B buttons to mark the commercial then 'Edit' > 'Delete' When complete click on the 'Save' logo and give the new file a name (including the extension) e.g. newfile.avi http://www.afterdawn.com/software/video_software/video_tools/avidemux.cfm
