Lost icons. Ripping video. CSI: CSI

Where do you get your good Lost icons from?

Let's say that you've downloaded a movie or a tv show. And you want to snip out a few minute clip of it to keep. What free, very easy to use program might one use? I used to have uhm ... something. Yeah, I don't remember what I used to have so I guess I should just end this sentence right about here. Or here. Wait, that's a second sentence and this is a third, shit.

Also, if possible this program should save things as the size they should be. I mean, the program I used before would cut out a two minute clip and it'd be about 50mb and that's not right. NOT RIGHT AT ALL, ya'll.

Yes. Pleh, please.

Hodges' version of an alcholic Brass was the funniest thing ever.  "No, I choose life." It's still making me giggle. And then this recent one with, [slightly paraphrased] "We can't do anything, they've layered up."  is making me laugh. A lot.

Why do I find it so funny? I don't know.

This is probably an extremely ghetto way to do it, but hey, if you just want a few minutes or so, then so be it. Use movie maker (or if you have a mac, whatever free movie editing program it comes with) and then clip out what you want and make a new video with just those clips. If you have the right settings, it'll be just the right size too.

I hadn't thought about that at all but I tried it after reading the comment and I have no idea how to use movie maker. :/ I tried to open up the video I want to clip a part out of and it said it couldn't be opened because some codec thing was wrong or missing or something. Boo.

But I love this suggestion, I'll have to try it with something else.
