2) Yes... they are called video editors. I use Magix, but there are a number of programs that do it. Don't use the Windows default one.
3) Yes... Those video editors give you various compression format to save in and it makes a huge difference. Video editing takes a lot of RAM and time btw so I wouldn't suggest it unless you have a fairly good PC

I have several 20+ minute videos up on my YouTube channel to testify to this.

Just make sure you unlock your YouTube account's ability to host long videos (requires a cell phone that can accept text messages).
Clicking on the linked image above will take you off the City of Heroes site. However, the guides will be linked back here.

My YouTube and Google Video accounts are quite in good standing and have existed for years. Yet I was still prompted for this (and one of my videos truncated) before I was allowed to upload longer videos again.

The one I use to compress is VirtualDub (using the ffdshow codec) - saving as AVI compresses files down to a much more manageable size.|

I then use Sony Vegas Movie Studio for my actual video editing, and save the output file as WMV, which compresses again without significant loss of quality.

I, too, signed up for the ability to upload larger files on my YouTube Channel by giving them Hyperstrike's cell phone number.
