Joining a divx avi

[trooperiziz]

Hypothetically speaking, were a friend of mine to download some films from the internet that came in two 700mb divx avi files, and that friend wanted to join them into one single file, how would he do it?

The tools out there don't seem to be able to handle the divx codec very well and just come back with invalid format, which isn't the case as they play perfectly well.

Whilst I dont condone this kind of activity it is possible. The best solution is to get hold of a video editing program like Nero or Roxio, make a new film and insert them both into it. I have never tried them with every codec but I am pretty sure it worked for me on a divx once before. Then it will do the rest for you. Of course this will cost you a few pennys but then your "friend" may know how to get round that too.

Is there not a simple freeware tool to do this out there? There are ones that do non-divx files. That approach seems a little like overkill

Yes, VirtualDub is the thing to have.

Works perfectly, my friend is hypothetically very happy.

I'm glad I could help your friend out, you were one of the first to say hello when I joined PH..
