Converting .avi to smaller file size

**Nims..Aisa** · 03-06-2009

Hi,

I have a Canon s3 camera, it records the videos in AVI formats but the size is too large. 10 minutes video takes 500, so i want to know how to convert a Avi file to minimum. i can convert it to 115MB in WMV format but then i can not play it on my DVD player. can you name any good video converter which can reduce the video size to minimum.

You can use TMPGEnc. its a pretty advanced video converter. its best for converting to avi files . it will reduce 100mb size to 30mb. you can download it from here http://www.tmpgenc.net/en/index.html

You can use windows in built converter, windows movie maker. There is an update to windows movie maker 2 on the Microsoft website that adds more transitions, effects and different compression settings. Windows movie maker is great for reducing the file size and preserving video quality.
