Re: Can I edit .AVI film clips?

Thanks John, that did just what I wanted. Now I need a codec (whatever that
is) to enable Vista's Movie Maker to read a 3GP file that came from my
Motorola V551 cell phone.

Try importing the clips into Movie Maker...

3GP is just a variant of MPEG-4.

AVIcodec and Gspot are free utilities that will tell you what codecs are
needed and where to get them.
