I use Corel VideoStudio Pro X4, takes a bit to figure out how to chop the videos, but it works good and is pretty cheap. I have a gopro hero, but can't figure out how to turn the damn thing on to record before a run, sad I know.

I would convert it to something more "light-weight" like .avi.

AnyVideoConverter will work great for that.

Then you can use WindowsMovieMaker to chop it. Should be a free download.

Just drag and drop the video into MovieMaker and then pause it where you want to chop it, right click the timeline and select split.

You can actually edit your videos via you tube. If you're looking to chop them, its easy and straightforward.

Sac, press the power button to turn it on, then press until you get the video camera icon. Then press the top button like you would to snap a photo to start recording.

I just use quicktime pro. It gets time consuming if you are trying to piece together a bunch of clips, but for just cutting out the beggining or end it's easy.

Put the vented back on the waterproof case and cover the holes with black electrical tape. That gives me the best balance of sound and less wind noise.

This was taken with the housing turned around backwards on my rear fairing. Very little wind noise considering how fast I was going in the end.

I have a 3M taped mount on my dash that I use for in the cabin.

I haven't tried the electrical tape yet, but I am planning on it.

You mean using the plastic back case with two rectangular hole? And cover them with tape to filter a Bit? Instead of putting the whole waterproof back case? On side of the car sounded good enough, but on top you just get all the winds from everywhere

That's exactly what I mean. I tried the waterproof back, but it sounds like crap.

The waterproof case is horrible for sound. I never use it. I use Sony Vegas pro to edit my videos. It took a little time to figure out how to fully use the program but once I did I was able to make cool videos.
