Removing from the end of AVI

Archived from groups: rec.video.desktop (More info?)

If it is an avi such as Xvid or DivX; you could try overburning the file
onto a CD and lose the last few seconds or minutes that way. It may or may
not then play on a DivX DVD player such as the Philips 642.
If the file is mpeg, TMPGenc has a trimmer in its MPG tools section. Some
have audio sync problems using this.
There are numerous versions of Virtual Dub out there so try an older version
or one of the modified versions such as Nandub.

Some good sites with the free tools and guides.
