Hi All, any help would be very much appreciated. My Nikon 2000E will
take short movies in .mov files, but only for about some 20secs. oin
length. How do I join these together ( using freeware :) ) please.

On googling I found the following

Graphics General: How do I join mov files?
I have WinME. I need to join 4 mov files into one. Is there a freeware
program that can do it? ...

Problem is that you have to sign up to view the answer, but it won't
let me join.

So...... I've come to the experts (Ok, Ok, yes I'm groveling!)

Any help gratefully received,

TIA

I'm not sure that you can. Your best bet (assuming you do not have QT
Pro... buyware) might be to convert to avi and then join.

I think you have to convert them to convert them first to a different format
to be able to do this (but I could be wrong), one way to do that is with the
rad videotools.

website: http://www.radgametools.com/
direct download: http://www.radgametools.com/down/bink/radtools.exe

After that you can join them with one of numorous programs available.
For instance for AVI's: http://www.divx-digest.com/software/pp_join.html
For Mpeg's : http://www.crm.mb.ca/crm/crcc/CRCC_CD/audio_video_mpegjoin.htm

The download link on that second site (mpegjoin) doesn't work. Also,
it claims the download ZIP file size is 2.2MB.

A bit of googling turned up:
http://www.softpile.com/Multimedia/Video/Review_05007_index.html
which also has a file called MPEGJOIN
<quoting>
MPEGJOIN is an MPEG I videostream joiner which allows you to combine
two MPEG I videostreams to form a new longer one.
</quoting>
but, in that case, the file size is given as 89KB! (Mind you, it does
date from 1995 and is demoware. :)

want it:

http://extra.newsguy.com/~theprof/CaMPGj.zip

which is a 573 kb download, my apologies for the mistake I made in my
previous post.

The RAD Videotools will also join your .mov files together into one single
continuous file. I recently had to dig thru several pieces of software
and the RAD Videotools were the only ones I found that really worked.
Also, the file compression module gave me files that were about 10% of
their original size.
