Yes, with one of the last svn revisions that's possible... I just checked that! With older versions you have to use con'cat'entate them and cut the resulting video. It's even possible with snippets which actually have been recorded at different times (e.g. not stemming from the same recording)... For instance you recorded the last part of a movie first and later when repeated after midnight the beginning and want to merge them together. Or you stopped the recording and started manually again a second one during a commercial break. Or the snippeds are just different program streams... The only drawback in that case is that the timestamps don't make sense, but as long as you just use frame numbers for orientation that's not really a problem. Of course, the start/stop pairs must lie inside a snippet... >> as i said, the parts are from dvbviewer. What is a proprietary header and >> how do i check if i have one?

It just loads that >what was my first part. That's strange... you're sure that dvbuct didn't re-use an older index you created before when trying with a single file? Some DVB recorders (at least my old topfied TF4000) add a few hundred bytes of header information to the recorded transport stream (but at least don't cut away the recordings). The idea was that such a header (or something else... broken frames?) in front of the second snipped could (maybe) prevent DVBcut to index the video beyond the snipped borders... Can you provide us a small part from the end of the first video and the beginning from the second? Of course cutted with 'dd' and not dvbcut or some other video editing tool! ciao Ralph ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
