VideoRedo slices and dices

I ran into some problems using Nero when I tried to cut sections out of video files. There seems to be a bug that prevents you from exporting a section out of the middle of a video. I had to go looking for an alternative solution. Luckly, I came across a program called VideoRedo. It comes highly recommended for anyone who wants to edit files generated on a video recorder. The program allows you to accurately export video, removing any unwanted sections. I still need a faster way to brighten dark segments. It takes Nero 4 hours to brighten a 40 minute video. That isn't going to work for me. I guess Nero isn't that great after all. I'll probably have to dig out TMPGEnc or something similar to get the job done. I'm doing three 6 hour seminar videos and this DVD project is going to run about 12 hours. But I'm always looking forward to the next project.
