Hi,
several times I have downloaded .avi 's that come in 3 or 4 bits about 150 to 200 MB long as if someone has chopped them up using a program similar to "Easy Video Splitter" .
The problem is with a lot of these .avi's is that you cant scan through them to a specific point in the movie , the program just freezes then closes as if something is removed from the file while splitting it ,
What I would like to know is there a program that will join these back together again so they will work again properly.
I tried to do it in "windows Movie Maker " but it could not read the files which would not scan. Easy video splitter could not read them either .
Any ideas anyone ?

It sounds like you have a few bad frames

VirtualDub can fix this

Cheers mate thats a canny program,
I had 4 parts to this film 2 peices were OK but the first two were not scanning , the first part I put through the virtual program came up with hundreds of faulty frames so I could not do much with that one , but the 2nd part I opened into VD and it rebuilt the index file so that one now works.
The main problem I had was to be able to scan the section of film so I could see if it matched up with the next part , this prog lets you scan through or even watch the film Its only problem is it wont veiw in full screen .

Does anyone know of a program similar to this one with a full screen veiw that will veiw damaged .avi files and scan them frame by frame.
