After some googling I ended up with the following solution: $: mencoder -oac copy -ovc copy -idx -o out.avi in1.flv in2.flv in3.flv etc... I used it to join some 12 .flv files into one single .avi file of approx. the same size as all twelve added up. As I understood it well, mencoder cannot output .flv format (but a lot of other formats indeed). For me there was no reason to convert the out.avi to out.flv, using ffmpeg, as it only results in poorer quality. Besides that, I found ffmpeg deleting some frames while converting. So I stuck with the .avi file. I use ffplay on the command line to watch the .avi video (ffplay is part of the ffmpeg package): $: ffplay -x 640 -y 480 out.avi If you ensist on having a .flv file, you can use ffmpeg like this: $: ffmpeg -i out.avi -sameq out.flv Greetings, Manon. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
