Hi, I need to glue together three *.avi files. I was trying to achieve this with avimerge (v1.0.2), did some tests (see below), but find it happens to segfault on me.
Some background info: The avi's were created with mencoder from three separate DVD's. These DVDs each are a partial recording of a 4-hour VCR-tape of one TV-program. The DVD's (and thus the avi's too, at the moment) have overlapping parts -- these will be clipped from the avi's. Then the three edited avi's need to be joined into one avi that can fit on one DVD. Is there any alternative at the moment that I can use? Meanwhile I'll investigate further. Thanks. - bjd $> avimerge --help avimerge (transcode v1.0.2) (C) 2001-2004 Thomas Oestreich, T.
