    Hi,

    I have a movie in 4 parts (avi type) and I'd like to paste them all to get one file. What program can I use for that?

    Thanks

    I use Avidemux :

    Open Avidemux; load the first part of the video.Make sure that vide and audio are set to "Copy"-this way no re-encoding is done.

    Next, append part 2:

    Then part 3, 4. However, all 4 parts need to have the same resolution. If the video contains VBR audio, it will ask if you want to create a Time Map to keep audio/video in sync. Say yes.

    VirtualDub works similar, you have to set audio/video to "Direct Stream Copy". I don't know if VirtualDub can do VBR audio though.

    If the source videos are not the same resolution, then you would need to "resize" / "add border" / "crop" each stream to the same resolution first.

    When done appending all the parts, go to "File"->Save

    Here's a guide for VirtualDub:
