<p>I recorded myself playing the piano and want to upload the video to youtube. However, the video file is 300 MB and youtube allows only files smaller than 100 MB. The video is in .avi format. Does anyone here know how to make video files smaller? Thanks.</p>
<p>compress it</p>
<p>Save it in a lower quality format. You can probably do this with any basic video program, even something as simple as Windows Movie Maker (not sure if it comes with all Windows PCs or not, I have media center edition and it came with mine).</p>
<p>^How would I use Windows Movie Maker to compress the file?</p>
<p>Could someone give me specific instructions using the program? Thanks.</p>
<p>Never mind, I figured it out.</p>
