hello,
i wanted to see if any one can help me out i have this movies on
my hard drive and the movies is split into two files is there anyway
of joining these movie into one file so i can burn it on to a dvd

yes. if its avi, you can combine it in widows movie maker, then convert it to .vob (.mpeg2) with winavi

thanks (haveacigar)
but how can i find out if this movie file is a avi movie file caues i
dont know if its a avi

the extention... it will be like movie.avi or movie.mpg etc...

the name thats on the movie file is TED.dvdrip.XviD not avi

not so sure how legal the content of this thread is with files with "dvdrip" in the filename...

.xvid is not the extension of that file. in windows explorer go to TOOLS>FOLDER OPTIONS then click the VIEW tab. uncheck the selection "hide extensions for known filetypes" then look at the file again to find out what the extension is

thanks(reasonsnotrules)
do you know if theres any other program that i can use to join a movie
that has been split back togethere besides windos movie maker

VirtualDub will do a good job on AVI files. Find via google.

Open the first part, append segment (the second part). Select Video & tick Direct Stream Copy and the just save as.

The direct stream copy is very,very important as otherwise it'll decompress the video giving you a massive file & take forever.

thanks (TimC)
for the info i found one called movie joiner
