I have an MPEG file that needs to be edited.

What is the quickest and easiest solution?

1. What kind of editing do you want to do?

2. Very simple.

It's less than a minute of tape and I want only about fifteen seconds. I want to run it real time, and then in slow mo.

3. you probably already have the tool.

Take what I say with a grain of salt. I am a linux geek and you probably don't want to do things the way *I* do.

That being said, I saw this link.... it appears to be all you need.

If i were you, I would use this tool to edit your file the way you like. Save it. use the same tool to slowmotion it and save the result. splice together the first part and the slow-mo part using the same tool.
