Actually you have the option to compress the clip when you save it...even change the format or the fps.
You can save by just final file size down to miniscule kb....but Movie Maker doesn't compress that well, freaky things can happen...lol
But sams point was he did not want to compress, but to crop and cut.
You import a 10 min movie into the movie maker....it will by default break it in smaller clips....which you can split/combine/merge/edit how ever you want.
lets say I wanted to get 10 20 second clips out of that 10 min movie....I create exactly what I want dumping garbage...and save each clip individually.
The resulting 10 clips are not compressed, but being only 20 seconds long each...they are by default approximately 1/50 the size of the 10 min original.
I think that is what sam was looking for.
