I have 2 large video files that I want to make into 1 long video on 1 DVD.... Can I use nero to put both parts of the video together? How?
I think I did that, It still makes them on the DVD as 2 seperate video options.... Can you be more specific?
it makes them like chapters which I like it shows them on the menu like that so they just play together. Tell me specificaly what you want to do and what movies so I can help you more.
basically, I have a video that a friend made that's across 2 VCD's that I ripped to my hard drive. So they act as 2 separate videos...when really he couldn't fit them onto one Disk. They are really one long video that he had to break into 2 parts for the sake of fitting it on CD's. I want to put the video back into it's original form on one DVD because it will fit. I didn't want to have 2 chapters or 2 selections on the menu screen. I just want one that will run the entire video..... It's a XVID, AVI file ( 2 of them)...... Andy, I don't see an option to merge in nero, Is there one?
i have nero vision express 2. so i will explain it that way and hope that you can do it that way. 1. open up nero vision express 2. 2. click on make new movie. 3. add your two video files to the project. don't need to put in any transitions. 4. hit next and you will see you movie as just one title, not two. 5. here you can create chapters if you want. don't have to. 6. hit next and you can set up the background and layout of your movie 7. hit next and then next again and here is the burn option, choose you burner or whatever and then hit burn/write. then you should have a movie . HOWEVER, i am assuming that it does this but i can't say for sure b/c i always had chapters. i am assuming that when you start the dvd that it will go to the menu and then you hit the movie and it will play all the way through. i never had just one like you are trying. i have had many titles and chapters. good luck. hope this helps.
in nero if you follow the directions it just treats the two files like one movie with two chapters it plays all the way through you can also have nero create chapters so that it looks like a professional dvd there is a guide in nero help that is very detailed if you need more just post it here
