Merging Video Files (mpg, avi, whatever)
 

Is there an easy way to merge video files into one?

Specifically, I have two avi files that I want to make into one. I've used DOS copy /b and it does create a merged file but the video players will not play the entire result; they think there is still just the first movie there.

I have moviemaker that came with XP but it have already developed an intense dislike of it.

Worth the $20 IMO, but it's a free-to-try download.

I don't find the XP Movie Maker to be SO bad....it's just SOOO SLOOOWWWWW..... But other than that, hey, it's free.

u can connect avi's and segmented avi's with virtual dub u can get it at Doom9 or go to Sourceforge to get the source code

Avi: virtualdub
mpg: tmpgenc

Not the only programs available, but I've found them to be the simplest to use.

thanks for the info.
