The VideoLAN Forums

I am using VLC media player 0.8.4a
I am wondering if there's a picture tutorial available to show me how I can split videos?
I've read the instructions on the VLC forum but I'm still lost; the user was using my version in the first place.
I would like to learn how to cut full length videos into segments.
Your help is much appreciated.

Splitting Video in VLC?? Mentioned in this forum?? I don't think so!

Find an editor! videohelp.com

Actually I can think of a way to do it that may work, but it would be a long complicated procedure and not real accurate. Specially when putting both sections in a playlist and playing through the split.

Hi...

I've enjoyed using the freeware package, HJSplit to handle all of my splitting/joining functions. Follow this link for help: http://www.freebyte.com/hjsplit/

Cheers!

This will really work for Video??

The files will play in there split condition??

Assuming they are renamed of coarse IE 001, 002 etc is not exactly acceptable or does it only work when you rejoin them??

How about an indexed file format like AVI?

You may have to rename some filetypes from something like xyz.avi.001 to xyz01.avi to play them after you split them, but they will play -- even in a playlist. Similarly, you can either click/drag files into the joiner, or rename them from xyz01.avi and xyz02.avi to xyz.avi.001 and xyz.avi.002, and let the joiner find them.

They do have to be the same filetypes to be joined, e.g.: you can't comfortably or safely join an .mpeg and an .avi, or even an mpg. and an mp4.

Either way, its still a rather useful tool, and I've used it for @ 3 years...

OK! Thank You! I will try it.
