Hi, I'm looking for a Avi Batch splitter application, and I have looked at all the programs I could find but with no luck :(

I have been using the small application AviChop v 0.2 for a while, but i need a batch function. I have tried to contact the author but he didnøt reply.

I need an application that can work with batch files, where i define source/target folders for the clips and how many megs each splitted part should be.

I have some video folders containing Divx avi files like here:

clip1.avi - 360MB
clip2.avi - 320MB
clip3.avi - 450MB
clip4.avi - 250MB

then I need to be able to feed the application with a batch file that defines the location of this folder and how many MB each file should be chopped at so in this example i want "clip1.avi" to be split at 90MB, this would give 4 parts called:
clip1_1.avi, clip1_2.avi, clip1_3.avi, clip1_4.avi each 90megs.. if the file was 380meg large, it would give 5 parts, where the last was 20megs.

and so on..

this should be fairly simple. but i haven't been able to find any application that supports this, it seems like most of the applications found via google have the same features:(

AviChop works great but if could be fed with a batch file it would be a super application!

I hope someone he knows a way to do this. :confused:

you could always merge them into 1 big file with virtualdub (append video segment) and then cut it with avichop

thank you for the reply! :)

I'm sorry but your solution wouldn't work because the size changes from clip to clip, and i calculate how many megs each chop should be for each clip. because i want the parts to have a similar size.

so if of the the movies is 411MB I could tell avichop to chop each part at 103Mb to get 4 similar sized clips.
