Convert video from a Flip Camera
How to use Avidemux to resize a video so that it is small enough to upload to http://myportfolio.school.nz/.
Contents
Open Avidemux
Using Ubuntu, open Avidemux by going Applications > Sound and Video > Avidemux.
Load a video
Go File > Open and find the file on your computer.
Trim clip (if necessary)
When the video is open, you will see a preview of it. If you need to trim the clip, set a beginning and end point by moving the slider then clicking the A (start) and B (end) buttons.
Select conversion settings
By using the Auto feature, you can easily format the video for a range of different uses. The best format to use for an e-portfolio is FLV. Go Auto > FLV
Save Video
Now, to save your video, click File > Save > Save video. The file will take a little while to render (depending on the size of it) and then you're done! Your video is ready to be uploaded to your e-portfolio.
