I have downloaded a 4 part video that had been split into parts for down loading and I wish to put back into a single file. Any one have any sugestions for a decent utilty for this.
I minor point is it plays the files at the wrong aspect ratio the correct being 4x3.

Thanks for all the replies, they were very helpfull once I had figured out what was being talked about as I knew nothing about such things. After much mucking around these are the commands that succeeded. A major problem being the original files just caused both avidemux and mencoder to crash. I had no idea the format of the orignal files, the file command reported them as flash video. ffmpeg -sameq -aspect 1.333 -i Schnell_3.flv Schnell_3.avi Converts from what ever to avi format maintaining orignal quality and changing aspect ratio to 3x4. mencoder -oac copy -ovc copy -o German_schnelboot.avi Schnell_1.avi Schnell_2.avi Schnell_3.avi Schnell_4.avi Join the four files into a single file. Very happy with the result, just get a faint click on the audio track at the joins. Close examination shows no deterioration in video quality, __very__ good. Lindsay
