Does anyone know an easy way to resize video clips? For uploading to Facebook etc?

Our camera does high definition videos, and 30 seconds of video is about 150MB, so quite huge. I don't want to chew through our internet allowance uploading them.

There doesn't seem to be an option in Quicktime. I wonder if there is another (free) programme I can use?

Thanks in advance!

Um, trying to imagine myself on my home computer, resizing it. I save them into "My Videos" and then right click on the icon going down to properties. I think that within that, there is the option of compressing. It gives you the "best" MB it thinks it needs but you can override that if you want. So I don't do it within a programme.

HTH????

I just tried that on one of mine & it didn't change the size but it did say compressed, so did it work???

I downloaded ImTOO MOV Converter because I needed to change the type of file as well because I wanted to use windows movie maker. It's free.

Or if you can resize in Windows movie maker if you have the right type of file.

Thanks guys. I ended up finding a free programme through CNet. I really liked the one you recommended Aliasmum. It was easy to use... but the free version will only convert half the file. Not very helpful!
