Answer 1

Try the free program VirtualDub.  It can edit .mpg and .avi files, as well as flip, reverse, resize, etc., and then write then as .avi files that you can then put in Movie Maker.

Hello - There are numerous free editing tools for video that you might want to look at

1) Wax

A free tool with powerful editing and compositing abilities.

2) Video Spin

Video Spin is the free video editing tool from Avid.

3) T@B ZS4

T2B ZS4 is a free video editing and compositing tool from Zwei-Stein. Its not for everyone, but it could be for you.

4) Vivia

Vivia is a basic editing software which is currently being developed and is in Beta testing. If you are using Linux or Windows you might want to check this out

5) Jahshaka

Jahshaka is a free multi-use offline editing tool. Although it is still fairly new on the market.

6) Avidemux

One of the more stable and complete free tools available.

7) Blender

Blender is a powerful, multi-use editing/compositing and modeling tool. It's one of the best on the market and it's free.

I would probably recommend looking at VideoSpin which has an export preset for Youtube export and upload.

Other than that you're into the 'big guns' such as Adobe Premier or Final Cut Pro

Yahoo! Answers community guidelines prohibit me from posting the link to my web site which has a complete list of these tools. A quick look at my profile will yield that information, though.
