My thanks go to Boris Yurkevich, who suggested to use QuickPlayer v.10. mov file and let me cut it into smaller pieces without frustration? Can anyone recommend me a decent program that could take a 1Gb. ![]() If iMovie was created as a toy program intended to “Hi, Mom! This is my Webcam” kind of videos it should be marked as such.
