LucidElement Posted January 23, 2013 #1 Share Posted January 23, 2013 I have a 6min AVI file.. and I need to reduce it so I can send it as an attachment in an email. What is the best way to do that?

the-Unexpected-Soul Posted January 23, 2013 #2 Share Posted January 23, 2013 try "any video converter", it's free and work for both mac and win, and it cover almost all converting and resizing needs, http://www.any-video-converter.com/products/for_video_free/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andami Posted January 24, 2013 #3 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Resizing via converter can and usually does affect quality (if you care about that). You can use 7-zip to compress the video to up to a fourth of its original size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Euphorbia Posted January 24, 2013 #4 Share Posted January 24, 2013 I have a 6min AVI file.. and I need to reduce it so I can send it as an attachment in an email. What is the best way to do that? The easiest way and quickest way would be most helpful. Not to mention free hehe =) .. Hope to hear back from you savvy computer guys/gals.. Thanks All! The easiest and best method for you to use is a program called HJ-Split. I have used this program for many years and have never had a problem with it. It is freeware and will work with any file extension. http://www.hjsplit.org/ It is only a 191kb download. You can split files as large as 100 Gigabytes into as many files as you want (100 1 Gigabyte files for instance), and then join them back together. There will be no loss in quality when you rejoin the parts. I have done whole moves without problems so your six minute .avi file will be real easy. The program does not have to be installed on your computer. Just run the .exe file and follow the easy instructions. The only thing is that the recipient of your .avi file will have to have the program to join the pieces back together. Either e-mail them the program or have them download it themselves. It is available for many different platforms like Windows, Mac, Linux, etc. Good luck..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
