compressing avi files without losing quality?
I have a bunch of videos from my canon powershot but the files are so huge, are there any free programs out there that will compress them without losing video/sound quality?

hummm... doesn't the term 'compression' implicitly imply quality loss?

You could try crush it down by re-encoding in Handbrake. Or pull it into Final Cut and edit it down.

im sure it gets compressed on their side but in the meantime i have to upload 700megs. the upload on my isp is pretty slow as it is but uploading to youtube is brutal.

youtube needs to make it so you can resume your uploads. it always fails part way through on the big files for me.
