The file is 6.08 GB. I can lose 34 minutes from the start and 15 from the end of the file. The first 35 minutes is TV commentators blathering on about stuff. The end 15 is the same. You're talking to the most technically inept person there is when it comes to me.
If I want to split this or take out 20 minutes I'll be damned when it comes to how. How much do I need to edit out? How's that achieved? I'm still using a MAC.
Move the slider to immediately before the part of the video that you want. Go to Edit -> Select in, then Edit -> trim. Move it to after the part you want and go to edit -> select out, then edit -> trim.
Go to file -> save as to save the video.
Move the slider to the middle of the video. Write down the time that it's at. Go to edit -> select out, then edit -> trim. Export the video with file -> export to AVI. Use these settings:
-Compression: H.264
-Quality: 70%
-Multipass: optional (will increase quality, but also encoding time)
-Sound: MPEG-4 AAC, 192kbps
After that's done, open the file that you saved with "save as". Go to edit -> go to time. Enter the time that you wrote down. Go to edit -> select in, then edit -> trim. Export the video with file -> export to AVI.
(I'm looking at the Windows version of MPEG Streamclip, so the specific menu wordings might me different for you.)
You now have the video cut into two halves. Create two ISOs from them with SmallDVD and burn them to two DVDs with Disc Utility. [ theymos's advice column | Ask theymos A Question ]
