| When I delete a selection from the middle or end of video file, the saved .avi shows the change. This doesn't work when deleting a selection at the beginning of a video file. The change isn't carried over into the saved .avi file. Unfortunately, using frame 1 instead of frame 0 as a starting point of deletion is not enough. Virtual Dub 1.5.10 |

| your cut must cover the whole section till the next keyframe. you cant have avi start (or any other container for that matter, not really anyway) at a non-keyframe. |

My video sample had a keyframe at every 300 frames. I was able to remove last 20 frames from the video and save the changes. How is that possible, if it wasn't on the keyframe? |

After a keyframe, you can cut off as many frames as you want, 20, 30, 40, 50 , 100, etc. .. In any case, Virtualdub will make sure that every new AVI segment that is the result of editing will start on a keyframe, thats the whole trick ..... |

| You can cut wherever you want if you recompress the video. |

I'll keep this in mind to avoid getting into similar trouble. If I'll have any choice, that is. |
