I took about 2.5 hours of footage on this epic tour around indochina and want to make an simple extended montage. All i want to do is cut out bad bits, add titles and a soundtrack.
I tried windows movie maker but the videos are in avi and get corrupted for some stupid reason.
What is the best program to use to make this montage quickly and easily?
If someone can solve the file corruption problem in movie maker that would also be good. I dont have time to edit this vid in detail, just need one that is quick and easy to use and wont crap out on me in any way. (e.g. corrupting files, crashing once the project get to 2 hours)

You can use the trial version of Premiere or After Effects if this is your only project in the forseeable future. You'll have to finish your project(s) within the 30 day trial, or use the trial for Premiere and when that one is over, get the After Effects trial.
You can try to re-encode with this http://www.videolan.org/vlmc/ or Google for a QuickTime pro key.. .. Depending on the quality needed you can upload to YouTube privately then rip the 1080 version with a download helper .. I try to chop up all my video into 10 min clips before editing funny things happen when files are to big
If you are fine with producing in 720p then just use the free version of lightworks. You could also use DaVinci Resolve lite 11. It is more of a professional color correction tool but with version 11 its has started to become a pretty capable nle. Neither of these are just something for a one time little project though so you might want to do what thirdmortal suggests and use kdenlive. Just save often because it is not the most stable of editors.
