hi...when i try to save my avi file.....the normal file size of 49mb rises up 1GB....how do reduce this? do i use DivX codex? and how do i resize all of the frame?

You need to select the codec in order to bring down the file size either using DivX or XviD.Refer to this screen:



As you can see from the above screen, the file is huge when not compressed.Select DivX in order to do the compression.The bitrate will determine the final size and quality also.DivX and Xvid has built in calculator to calculate the bitrate & file size.

Another link which give you some idea on how to use VirtualDub (this guide using XviD instead):

To resize the frame, you need to use the filter in the VirtualDub.

Looks like you didnt click on compression in the video tab
If you didn't, the file will be output into an uncompressed file which is HUGE+


Click on compression and select your compression codec choice, as for your audio, it will be automatically selected as direct stream copy so no need to worry about it
