Thanks for the advice, Andriy. That does sound better.

I finally figured out a better way to do the whole process though.  The trick is to create an audio file the same length as the video. Don't try to patch audio segments into the video at particular points. Just create one audio file with the correct amount of silence between the narration segments so they come in at the right time and then mix that with your video.

In other words, what you need to do is  work with sox to pad your audio files with silence. Then concatenate them with sox into one audio file that is the same length as the video. Then use ffmpeg to add the audio to your video.

Hi John! Great video.

There's nothing wrong with the first method, where you get "chapters"
right which you join later. This way you can playback individual
chapters and tweak their build instructions until they are how you want
them. I usually do that, writing the code in a Makefile actually.

If the issue is a "pop" in audio at the audio added on top, that's not a
flaw of the method but a part of the recorded audio. Try "afade" filter
at the beginning (afade=type=in) and the end (afade=type=out) of the
overlaid audio file where it pops.
