Hi Justin,
I am using Gromacs 4.5 beta-2.
gmxcheck with file 1 and file 2 tells me exactly the number of frames
I specified.
gmxcheck -f File1.xtc
Frames: 2175
gmxcheck -f File2.xtc
Frames: 1232
While after concatenating, it skips the frames and the combined
trajectory results in 1266 frames.
Do you attribute this to Gromacs4.5beta2 version? Is there a possible
bug in that version for trjcat?
Maybe - but it's not worth finding out whether a bug existed then.
There's no value in trouble-shooting a beta version that is known to
have other problems. Get the latest GROMACS version and install and use
it. If you can demonstrate a problem there, now people will be much more
interested in addressing the issue.

What does gmxcheck tell you about each of these files?

There have been numerous beta versions over the last few years, none
of which
should necessarily be considered stable. Which beta are you using
exactly?

Dear gmx-users,
I intended to concantanate two trajectories with no similar time
frames i.e., both files have distinct time frames. But once I
combine the files many time frames are skipped, details are as
follows:
File 1 has 2175 frames
File 2 has 1232 frames
I used the following command to concatenate:
trjcat -f File1.xtc File2.xtc -o CombinedFile3.xtc
Now I obtained in total 1266 frames instead of 3407 frames as
expected. When I compared the CombinedFile3 with both File 1 and
File 2, I found that it has somehow taken the first 34 frames
from File 1 and rest of the frames belongs to File 2 i.e., the
last file.
I am unable to understand why trjcat skips the frames inspite of
no similarity. I am using 4.5-beta version of Gromacs. I am also
open to sharing the files, should that be needed.
Any possible explanation as to why I am obtaining the combined
trajectory with skipping frames, would be really helpful.
Many Thanks,
Lipi
