joining multiple .mts files.

[Big Vern]

Is there any easy way to do this?

My friend has given me a portable hard drive with 100s of small .mts files that he shot with his camcorder whilst on holiday. There are 3 folders and they contain over 150 small .mts files in each folder, 1 folder contains 258 .mts files!!!
He asked if I could join them up and re-encode them to go onto a DVD so he can pass around to his family. I was gonna use tsmuxer, but you can only open 1 file at a time!
Is there any tool that can open the lot in one go, and join them up?

Thanks.....

Sussed it. I am using tssplitter in join mode. Had to use the *.* to get tssplitter to see the files, but it is now joining them, bloody hope so anyway :)

Bah humbug, that didn't work.

It joined the files, cos it was 7 gig in total, but only the first file of 167 can be played.

any ideas please?

I assume each of the 258 files are actually a scene (between REC-start and REC-stop/pause).
I would edit them rather than joining them. I mean, if they were something to me ;) I would try to make a movie out of them, not another youtube movie ....
For people not caring what they filmed, I think every camcorder has an option to output a HD/SD movie directly out of the camcorder, at least Canon/Sony/Panasonic do.
