bit torrent compresser??

[enishi]

ok, so heres a question for you savy video editors out there:

how do you get fansubbs offa bit torrent to load into premier? i get this 'unsupported compression format' crap. i also get errors on the following programs: TMPEG, AVI2DVD. i thought it might be a codec issue, but it if it were i wouldnt see the video in the media player .. so i threw that idea out the window.

id like to make some video shorts of random clips, but cant upload any avi's to programs .. cause they arnt reconginzed with that crazy compression issue. id also like to back up my fan subs on dvd, but in order to do so i'd need proper compression. i dont really go for the pilaging bit, as i have bought japanese imports for all of ive seen, spare one series i decided was crap.

so, if any of you guys know how to fix this error, it'd be super appreciated.

josh.

i had the same problem here, i imovie wont upload 30 minute episodes because if it were to be uncompressed, it would be larger than 2 gigs.

i found a really nifty, and really easy progream to clip .avi files
