 |
|
| I captured several MPEG files from my digital camera and now I want to merge them into a single movie. Am I correct in thinking that you can just sort of dump them all into a single file using dd and it will work? If so, what exact command would I use to do this, and if not, does anyone know of a program that can do this? transcode possibly? (I've used that to do this with AVIs before). |

Nevermind, I figured it out.
You can indeed use dd to merge MPGs, and you just do it by dumping them all with bs=512 into a single file, which then plays seamlessly. |

I've found that you can also use something like:
| Code: | cat xyz.mpg >> merge.mpg
cat zxy.mpg >> merge.mpg
|
usually works for me, easier than dd
