How edit out the actual footage?

Richard:
I used you technicque of setting in and out points and exporting, but here is problem:
I export : Quick Time Movie and I get a Final Cut Express Movie File 1/10 size of my original file.

I export “using quicktime conversion”
It’s take forever, but I do get a QT file, but it’s 1/4 size of originail with different data rates etc.

So I’m still lost on how to do this.

(I only cut off 4 seconds of a 30 second QT file)
