Editing AVI files is easily done through VirtualDub but for .wmv, .flv, .rm and .mpg files the tools are less easily available. Some very good command line tools are available for editing these files viz.

Not all these programs are open source programs. MpgTx and flvtool are open-source tools. [Please bear in mind that you should get a license for AsfBin if you choose to use this for commercial use]

If you have Real Producer Basic 11 installed on your computer you may be able to use Movica to edit .rm files.

Movica is just a graphical user interface that uses these fine programs to edit movie files. A great deal of emphasis has been placed on keyboard shortcuts to make the job of editing easier.

Briefly what you can do is -

- Select or delete multiple portions from a video file.
- Copy, paste and fine tune the selections.
- Join multiple files together
- Split movies into smaller files
- Save and play selected scene without editing the movies

In theory you could use Movica for editing .wma and MP3 files. But I am sure there are other tools for doing that. So I have chosen not to allow that. Let me know if you want me to enable that.
