And each time I export it and open it in Windows Media Player,The play back is choppy and inconsistent. am quite frustrated.I just want to edit the video and have smooth playback so I can upload it to youtube. I just need to know what settings to export it as.Please help.I am trying to export my mothers wedding invitations.

First, match your project settings to your source media. The easiest way to do this:
1. File > Properties
2. On the Video tab, click the Match Media Settings button.
3. Browse to one of you Flip Ultra HD files and select it.No thinking required! Now, when you render, you’ll also want to render the same format. I’d use the MainConcept AVC codec, but many folks like the Sony AVC – either or. These are the base render settings for 720p30:
1280×720
progressive
30 fpsThere’s probably a preset for this if you look. Now the tricky part: the data rate. For YouTube, I generally crank out a data rate as high as I can get, usually 20Mbps, but anywhere in the 10-20Mbps range is fine. For playback on your computer, you might consider a less stressful data rate of 10 Mbps (the camera shoots at about that data rate). And if you were e-mailing this file or hosting it yourself, I’d select something like 2-3Mbps.
There are other settings you can play with, like VBR vs. CBR: I don’t think you’ll find these matter much compared with the above.
