it is well worth mentioning that you can only join streams with identical sampling rates and data formats

Can you tell , sir, how to join two mpeg1 or mpeg2 files ? And can you tell me how to add credits to a mpeg1 or mpeg2 file using VDubMod ? Will it lead to loss of quality ?

Use TMPGEnc.Merge/Cut option.

Ok thank you very much , sirs.

Why doesnt someone come with a userfriendly version of Vdubmod with windows interface ? I thought VDM was OS , so you ahev the codes to work on.

Plus one big drawback with VDM is that you can output only avi files and these cna be very large ones.

Not if you know how to encode with something like XviD.

what if I'm trying to combine 2 videos where around 50-100 frames at the END of the 1st video is repeated in the BEGINNING of the 2nd video (because of the key frames during the video seperation process) ?

I have the exact same problem, unfortunatelly there isn't any known program in the whole convert/encode/recode/edit bunch of different tools that is able to correct this in an easy fashion.

Join the two videos.Then delete the frames that are repeated using Virtualdub(MPEG2 or MOD).
