Merging 2 AVI files can be easily accomplished with mencoder. But the two AVI files must be encoded with the same video and audio codec. Assuming that you have part1.avi and part2.avi, seamlessly consecutive, the mencoder command to concatenate them is:
mencoder -ovc copy -oac copy -o whole.avi part1.avi part2.avi
That works great. Also wildcard * works fine for the input, but ONLY if the working folder inwhere the files to be merged are.
ReplyDeleteThis will work:
mencoder -ovc copy -oac copy -o whole.avi *.avi
So this would NOT work:
mencoder -ovc copy -oac copy -o whole.avi c:\video\*.avi
