I have a bunch of segements of a concert that i want to combine so i can watch the whole thing all the way through. What is the best program to do this with? I tried to use iMovieHD but the file it created was like 8gigs. is there something else or was i just doing it wrong. Thanks for the help.

How long was the concert? What did you use to record it?

8 gigs might be perfectly reasonable depending on how you recorded it.

Anyways, burning it to DVD via iDVD would be a good solution I think.
I'd give my right arm to be ambidextrous.

it's about fifty minutes long and when you combine all of the files together its like 2.5 gigs so i thought eight to be a bit large. ill try the dvd to idvd suggestion and see how that works
