Technical Help Thread

[Reno 79]

This thread will be for discussing the software and the methods for downloading/uploading, hosting, editing, splitting and converting the videos. So the content of this thread won't be about Gaga, but since there are threads with people asking to convert videos to mp4, reduse the resolution, separate the performance from the interview etc... i thought this is the right place for this thread. It will be like a small knowledge base.

If you don't understand something you can leave your question in this thread and hopfully someone will answer it. If there will be some valuable information like programs or tutorials i'll try to put them in my first post so it would be easier to find it.
