If you are having issues make sure this is done. 1.there is no space in the titles of your files. the out put filename can have spaces. 2. VLC Path is in quotations 3. Space between "--" and sout-keep in the end. 4.Run from CMD not power shell. "C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" nospace_part1.mp4 nospacepart2.mp4 --sout "--#gather--:std{access=file,dst=Space and time.mp4}" -- sout-keep

When i check the merged file its 5GB when the 10 videos individually are only about 50mb. The final video does show the clips but they are out of order and doubled/tripled clips. What can i do so that the 10 mp4 files merge only with out duplicates?

@@aathmam8044 et.al. Wound up downloading and playing around with VideoPad, avidemux, Windows Movie Player, Roxio Game Capture HD (forgot I had and editor with that), VSDC Free, OpenShot and kdenlive video editors. VSDC isn't loading now for some reason. avidemux is kind of a hassle like all the others beside VideoPad which seems really intuitive. Roxio wouldn't load AC3 audio or mp4's. OpenShot has some awesome Title Screens and Transition... with even more if you have Blender installed. Windows Movie Player doesn't offer much like avidemux. I'm still trying to get used to OpenShot and Kdenlive since they seem to have options worthwhile using. VideoPad still from my skill level as a newbie wanna-be... seems the best. OpenShot is making sense for rotations now where the property needs to be manually entered as 0.0001 or some number if you have a 90 degree rotation that only rotates 180 degrees. Guessing there is some format the video editors use that is different that using the audio editing software that seems more like how VideoPad is designed.

@Key_Smasher3 жыл бұрын
I tried the merge with two files as directed, and when playing back the combined file, the result is that the first video plays through fine but when it gets to the second video, the audio was cut out. Just to try it again without conversion first (since that step takes so long), I tried the combine script with the two original files since they were created using the same screen capture feature of my Nvidia video card (Shadow Play). The recording should have the same frame rate and dimensions, but the result was that when the combined played back and reached the second video only the audio was there, not the video. It just paused the video at the end of the first file. My theory with this is that Shadow Play is using some kind of variable frame rate to improve performance so I might have to mess with that a bit. But for recordings without audio, this method works well. This is with VLC "3.0.12 Vetinari"

After trying to use this VLC utility for a few days on numerous video files, I find it to be wonky and inconsistent. On some of my conversions, the audio was removed on the last input video clip. On others, if the output video was longer than 44.34 minutes, the video would cut out or the playback would halt as if the file was corrupted. I guess you get what you pay for. I have looked into other third party utilities that append video files, but none I've found will save in 4k. I wish VideoLan would fix this - obviously it is a function that has user demand.

Some files that need to be converted need 'interlace' activated, while others will only properly convert with 'interlace' off, if not properly converted as just described, when you go to play your converted file you will only have sound while displaying a black screen. That's a problem, because when you go to merge all the files together you're only going to have the choice of 'interlace' being off, or on, which means some of the files that make up your combined larger file will be fine, while other portions of the combined file will have a black screen with sound only when you go to play it. I don't see any way around that obstacle using VLC, maybe some third party converting software like WinX addresses that problem?
