What I wanted to do was to "Grab" a short portion from a movie I have already downloaded, then make it into a repeating short video. I see many of these short repeading video posted here.

Howdy,

 

These are called as GIF images and can be easily created using photoshop or other similare softwares. The advantage is that the file size would be less when compared to the actual video clip so that you can easily integrate them on Websites or blogs. Let me know if I can help create one for you. OR you can try various online software to do that - one of them is http://imgflip.com/gifgenerator

Just use your video editing app (Windows Media or Mac iMovie, depending on the platform) to make the clip you want and throw it at the websites Jusext or TheOtherIndian mentioned.

 

If you have an iOS device, try Echograph - it clips and exports all in one and can produce really high-quality GIFs with small sizes. Maybe someone suggest an Android app like it?
