Join AVI Files in Linux

June 27, 2006

Here's how to concatenate AVI files in Linux. AVI files cannot just be concatenated at the file level. This takes the input files and creates one single output file.

avimerge -o OUTPUT.avi -i INPUT_1.avi INPUT_2.avi

If you don't have avimerge installed, you can install it with:

sudo apt-get install transcode-utils

or

yum install transcode

you should have mentioned that avimerge is part of the transcode project (http://freshmeat.net/projects/transcode/)
