Greeting,
Any suggestions on how to merge vcd files together?
Have a collection that I'd like to burn (with merged files) to a dvd.
Running Knoppix.

Thanks,
Art2U

But this isn't a Knoppix group.

As far as I know there isn't a Knoppix newsgroup, but Knoppix IS an debian
distro. I take you don't know...

There are Knoppix mailing lists.  And Knoppix is *NOT* a debian distro.  If
Knoppix were a Debian distro, you'd be able to find information for it at
debian.org.  Knoppix != Debian.  Knoppix makes drastically different
assumptions to fit into it's niche than Debian does being a general-purpose
distro.  No, I don't know how to merge VCD files in Knoppix.

mencoder.

to convert mpg to avi (divx):
mencoder -oac copy -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4 -o output.avi input.mpg

to join avi files:
cat input_1.avi input_2.avi | mencoder -noidx -ovc copy -oac copy -o
output.avi -

And as you found out, the choice of mencoder had nothing to do with which
distro you were using. Linux apps tend to be pretty universal across
distros.

And yes, since knoppix is a Debian derived distro, I think your question
here was relevant, but not useful. You should have crossposted to
comp.os.linux.misc (or some such group in the comp.os.linux.* hierarchy).
