Hello everyone,
I'm looking for a Video Merge tool.
Should be portable and allowing to choose the filters/codecs used to open the video files, allowing to work around system default codec's issues.

Re: Video Merge tool
...very simple and user friendly: Video to Video
The program is no longer maintained, but works like a charm - you find the desired function under "tools". There you can also split or cut videos.

Re: Video Merge tool
I'm trying them all, having no good experiences.
Some of them stop responding, doesn't allow to append files, doesn't accept the file type, etc.
We need to do the simplest possible task: just join the video files, *without reencoding*, which most of them are prone to. The file type is pretty common: MP4 container with AVC.

If you don't mind the CLI, you could use ffmpeg...david.lynch wrote: ↑We need to do the simplest possible task: just join the video files, *without reencoding*, which most of them are prone to. The file type is pretty common: MP4 container with AVC.
Code: Select all
> ffmpeg -f concat -safe 0 -i list.txt -c copy joined_final.mp4

Re: Video Merge tool
david.lynch - you really should try Video to Video if not already done!
It saves the video (if all parts have the same resolution/aspect ratio/codec) without reencoding ("direct stream copy")

Re: Video Merge tool
@Midas: We prefer a GUI version, but CLI on ffmpeg is a good catch also!
@billon: Thanks for pointing so many solutions!
Video to Video was a clear winner, task accomplished beautifully! Thank you, @zorro!
About the lack of updates since 2013, I've asked the developer if he would consider making it open source on GitHub, for instance.

It's a fantastic program. I keep hoping development will resume ... thanks for pinging the author.
