Avi Joiner

[cox377]

Hello All

Looking for a bit of advice,

I'm looking for a decent app to join avi files together,

In addition I need an app to convert Avi to Dvd

Would be greatly appreciative of any tips / pointers

Avidemux and MEncoder.

In addition I need an app to convert Avi to Dvd

KmPg2 - http://kmpg2.sourceforge.net/ - convert anything to MPEG-2 for DVD use
DVDAuthor Wizard - http://dvdauthorwizard.sourceforge.net/ - make DVD from MPEG-2 clips, with menus etc.

For avi files I think it's something along these lines.
At the CLI enter cat filename.avi filename2.avi > endfilename.avi

Do a search of the forum.

Virtualdubmod is real good for this. Open the 1st avi then "append avi segment" for all the others.

Not sure if Vdub is on Linux, should be.

VirtualDub is not available for linux. It is windows only, AVIDemux is the closest alternative.

thing is with AVIDEMUX i cannot work out how to join avi files together, do i have to install a plugin for it?

Edit - Just seen it

a simple mencoder command will join files. as for converting avi to dvd, i use tovid. i made an automated script for tovid that i can get to from nautilus scripts. a terminal will pop up and ask if the film is in one or two parts, then you load the part(s), it joins them together if necessary, then converts to dvd, then converts that to an iso. most of the functionality is already in tovid. ill post the script up when im back at my computer if anyone's interested. its pretty rudimentary though. its set for ntsc but probably easily changed.
