When I edit my video on movie maker it screwed up the quality ?

When I was editing my minecraft vid I was removing bits and then after finished editing it makes it look really bad. Why Does it happen and how to fix it.

Is the quality lower before or after you save the video clip? If after, what save/export settings are you using when you save the clip?

After saving I save using for high definition display

What format is the video in when you bring it in to Movie Maker? Are you saving the file as an .mp4 file or a .wmv file (those are the two save as options when saving for a high definition display)?

The format I'm bringing in is Avi from recording from Fraps. I save as a mp4 file I then upload to YouTube

If I am not mistaken the .AVI files are quite large. You might try converting the .AVI files into another format such as .mp4 or something else before you start editing in Movie Maker. You could try something like Handbrake or MPEG Streamclip or another conversion program. I know this adds an extra step but Movie Maker may be able to handle the smaller file size better.
