Help Combining a bunch of Small videos

[bill haleen]

Does anyone know of a program that can combine a bunch of small videos WITHOUT completely recompiling the videos, which is making them MUCH larger (10x).
I'm currently using Wondershare Video Converter Ultimate.
I've also tried the Quicktime trick.

looking for something that just links them back to front.

Any Ideas??

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

-What video file types - WMV, MOV, M4V, etc?
-Are they all the same resolution/aspect ratio?
-Do they have sound?
-How do you want to export the combined clips - in the same format?
-Which QuickTime trick did you try?

Thanks for responding.

-What video file types - WMV, MOV, M4V, etc? - Mp4
-Are they all the same resolution/aspect ratio? -all the same resolution/aspect ratio/frame rate
-Do they have sound? - all have sound
-How do you want to export the combined clips - in the same format? - export also in Mp4
-Which QuickTime trick did you try? - tried open first one in quicktime, adding the others, then saving the resulting file.

You've helped me before and i'd like to say thanks for being out there to help.

No worries.

-Sorry, but remind me which version of OS X are you running?
-Do you happen to have QuickTime 7 Player with Pro key installed? It will be in the Utilities folder?

Adding a clip to the end of another clip using recent versions of QuickTime Player makes you have to re-compress the file using Export. I don't recall any other apps that would make it any easier than your process above, except the old QuickTime 7 Pro app. Unless, MP4Joiner would work. I don't know anything about it or its reputation - was just a quick Google search.
