I really have no movie editing experience, so when the need to try to splice together four large .avi files arose, I was flummoxed for want of a better word.

However, a little googling quickly provided what looks like a great CLI command to do just that. I got it from this post. To run the command you need to install mencoder (sudo apt-get install mencoder) and then run

mencoder -forceidx -ovc copy -oac copy -o output.avi input1.avi input2.avi …

Works great although you must make sure that all of the input avi files have the very same fps and resolution. Otherwise it’ll just error out.


What’s that picture?

This is part of a painting called The Hunters by dutch painter Pieter Bruegel from about 1560. I love this guy's work and those of his other family members. They provide a real opportunity to go back in time and participate in life 500 years ago in north-western Europe.
