Hi Intruder102. Here's the procedure I follow re: using WMM.

1) import the vid into WMM
2) save it as a project
3) drag it to the video bar at the bottom and then use that to split it into chunks to save. I usually create 2:50 minute clips. To do this just use your mouse to drag the end of the clip back to 2:50.
4) go to menue and select save movie file; save to my computer; and then choose a name
5) select 'best fit to file size' and for OCC I use 11 megs. This should keep the quality fairly high
6) after the first clip is saved, go back to the main screen.
7) open your project again (which will be of the full clip)
8) cut the first 2:50 off the beginning of the clip and then save the project again.

repeat until the whole vid is cut and posted on OCC for us to enjoy.
