Merging 4 cd SVCD movie and then authoring it!

[Luc2010]

Well I have been following the guide on this site. Yet, when after I merge the 4 cds I demux into a video and audio file. Then I load them into Spruce-Up after I have patched the video and encoded the audio to 48000. Now when I load into Spruce-Up it recognizes as only one of the CDs that merged and not the whole 3.2 GBs. Is there something I could do that would let it recognize it as a whole and not 1/4? Thanx

How do you merge the 4 CDs?
The 100% working way: load the 4 mpeg-2 files into M2-Edit Pro 4.x/5.x and generate the huge output mpeg-2 file(with audio & syncron), then load it into DVD authoring software.

I used the AVI MPEG RM Joiner. The reason I used this is because I couldn't find any other program to merge. VOBsplit didn't work and neither did TMPENC ver. 2.5. So I found this one. Well thanx and I will give it a try.

hey...by the way where is the option to merge the 4 files together? This thing is a little confusing. Any help would be appreciated.

by the way....I don't think this program is worth 445 dollars to merge these 4 files together...so where do I get a program that I could fix the errors in the SVCD so I could use it for DVD authoring??

yes this is prog. for professionals... if you dont wanto pay so much just search it in eDonkey if there is a student editon...(just for trying and uninstall it after 24 hours:D).

Other freeware prog.: the a/v syncron is mostly(in 90% cases) not guaranteed. Try with the TMPG to only join the 4 .m2v files.
