    I need one, it has to be free.

    It cannot be Windows Movie Maker, it doesnt work as it should on my system, nothing ive done has made it work right.

    Anytime I add an audio track, lets say the file is 4:49 long, Windows Movie Maker will say the audio file is 9:24 long, which messes it up.

    So I need a free video editor ASAP!

    I have some video I need to edit now.

    Please Please Please!

    Thankyou! :)

    Jahshaka is supposed to be a very good video editor, just downloaded it myself. In the past I have heard that it was bugy, but they say it has been fixed. I guess I will find out though. I am not sure if Kino is available for windows but in the linux world it is thought of as a good basic video editor.
