.AVI editing, trimming

[Erik Gilchrist]

Subject: .AVI editing, trimming

I have quite a few .AVI files that I need to trim to fit onto CD (700 
MB).  I have access to the popular hi end video editors but not much 
skill in that arena and still have not found a way beyond using 
software like Discreet's Cleaner on PC to Edit/Trim the .AVI files.  
The Mac version does not seem to be able to import .AVI files like the 
PC counterpart.

Anyone know of any apps (retail, share/freeware) that I can use on OS X 
to trim my larger .AVI FIles down?  What I do is use Stuffit and 
Segment them and then burn to CD in pieces (or .DMG them) for archive 
but I would like to get them trimmed to <700mb for straight one-shot CD 
archival.

Thanks and please note I am on DIGEST mode and would love to be CC'ed 
or contacted offline if not appropriate for this list. I really 
appreciate it.
