AC3 append...

[loa-ash]

Hi all.. thie is my situation:
I've mononoke movie split in 3 avi file with audio jap... the i've the italian audio split in 2 ac3 files... My question is: how can merge the 2 files ac3 in one file ac3?... With virtualdubmod i can open the first video file the i append the other 2 files... so i've one avi file about 2.1GB... but with vdubmod i can't append ac3... :(

I've used also this faq #5:

5. How can i join AC3 files?

Let's say you want to join stream1.ac3,stream2.ac3,stream3.ac3 into stream.ac3.
create a listfile. join.lst:
stream1.ac3
stream2.ac3
stream3.ac3

Use BeSplit :

code:

BeSplit -core( -input join.lst -output stream.ac3 -type ac3 -join )

but nothing happens... :(((


How can i do this?
Thanks all :o

stupid questions I know:

all needed files are in the same directory? You have used the commandline in the same directory? What does but nothing happens... mean? Do you have a log file (improbably using this commandline)?

dunno why your command-line does not work, but ... afaik, ac3 can be appended by copy /b. try that. are your ac3 files ok ? check that before joining them.

Thank you for reply...

@daphy:
All files (join.lst and stream1.ac3 stream2.ac3)are in besplit's directory then my command is:
BeSplit -core( -input join.lst -output stream.ac3 -type ac3 -join ).... I haven't my log file because when i launch the command line.. nothing happens... and return to prompt...

@yaz:

what's mean "ac3 can be appended by copy /b..." the files are ok... how can i do this?

Thanks all

loa-ash,

From a command prompt, do this:

1) change directory to where your ac3 streams are
For instance, if your files are at C:\MyStreams, your prompt should look like this C:\MyStreams>

2) type copy /b stream1.ac3+stream2.ac3 joined.ac3

... copy /b stream1.ac3+stream2.ac3 joined.ac3 yep, that's the way to go but it'll also crash (or produce a crap) if your files are not flawless

besplit:
u can (should) check your files with the -fix or -fixcrc core-switch(es) before joining. run it also on the joined file !
if u use -logfile(a) switch u'll see where and (maybe) why besplit kicks off.
