Whats the easiest video joiner?

I want to join a bunch of clips together, whats the easiest and or best joiner??



Also I cant get vids to join with Hsplit?? any ideas why?

I'd say: try the "import in collections" -option in MovieMaker. To my surprise it works fine for me (should be on your computer if you run that XP-shit).
Otherwise Virtual Dub.

Or this: http://rapidshare.de/files/11788573/Ultra_Video_Joiner_v3.5.7z
In my experience: stay away from all the download.com-trials.


Edit: all the clips I upped last week I edited with Moviemaker. Had no complains bout codex, quality, file-size whatever. I know there is a bunch of software out there, but again, why looking for something while this is on every XP already?

And no, I'm no BillGates-fan-boy, and I prefer OSX or Ububtu to XP, but if it works, I'll use it. Even if it is from Redmond!

Try AVI/MPEG/RM/WMV Joiner from http://www.boilsoft.com/
works like a charm, has one drawback its not free

I agree with the previous post, Boilsoft is great and sure saves a lot of time.

mm.easy video joiner 5.21.search p2p for one with crack.always virus scan em,before opening...

On linux, i just do:

Code:

cat vid.avi.* > vid.avi

Maybe you could just in your command prompt on windows do a:

Code:

type vid.avi.* > vid.avi

It's worth a try instead of installing some spyware filled application

Use TMPGenc to join mpeg files, its good and its free.Its main use is to convert AVI ,WMV etc files to mpg.It converts them very quickly (about 5 minutes for a 80meg file)to Vcd format mpeg.Once they are in Vcd format they can be quickly burnt to a disc as data and played on most cheap dvd players.
Firstly when you instal TMPGenc you have just a file folder on your desktop,open it and click on the MPEG Encoder icon. A project wizard appears
from which you choose the mpeg format you wish to convert your files to,just choose Video-CD Pal or NTSC and hit the Cancel button.
You are then faced with the TMPGenc main screen.If you want to convert a file just browse for it with the Video source browse button (the audio source will automatticaly appear),and then use the "Output file name" browse button to select where your converted file will go.Then hit Start and you will see the progress as your file is converted.
To join mpeg files go to the file menu (to the top left of the Start button)and select MPEG Tools.Next select Merge and Cut.You can select the files you want to join with the Add button and you can edit them with the Edit button (if you select a part, and hit edit ,a screen appears with a slider allowing you to cut parts out of the file).Browse with the Output button to select a destination file and hit Run.
To join Avi or Divx files (like the ones downloaded from teenfuns etc) you can use VirtualDub.Which is also free.First start the Virtual Dub program and from the File menu select "Open video file " (a browser screen appears for you to select the first part of your file).0nce you have the first part loaded you MUST go to the Video menu (along the top of the prog,with file,edit etc) and select "Direct stream copy",then do the same in the Audio menu.Next go to the File menu and select "Append AVI segment" and select the next part of your file.If the parts of the file are numbered consecutively 1,2,3,4 etc you only need to select the second one ,the others will be added automaticaly.Next go back to the file menu and select "Save as AVI",a browser appears for you to select the output file,as soon as you hit Save the conversion takes place.Then you have a complete film of Sabine etc instead of all those parts.
Then you can convert your Avi film to Vcd with TMPGenc and watch it on your DVD player.
Sorry for the long reply but I hope this is usefull as they are two excellent free progs ,with no spyware.Regards Bailington

To continue with what Barrington was saying, a little research here http://www.videohelp.com/ will go a long. They have recommendations and links for all the best capture and conversion software around.

Thanks , I have some clips I want to join and post, look like some research for me to do MM.

on DOS do:

copy /B mymovie*.mpg > my_whole_movie.mpg.

But be aware that mplayer is much tolerant to joined movies than most windoze players.
What is ok for us in Linux may not play ok on WMediaPlayer.
