you can join avis with file--->append segment avi

appending will only work when:
- frame size of the videos is the same
- frame rate is the same
- video format (codec) is the same
- audioformat is the same

i think thats about it... unsure.gif

good luck smile.gif

@Stephan: i've understood that Tongari needs to compress sequence of images, but not sequence of avi's.
@Tongari: there are, imho, more effective methods to save HDD space. If your images are BMP, you can either use archivers (zip, rar, etc) or convert images into lossy formats (JPG, GIF, etc). If you nevertheless want to join your images into avi, goto File -> Open -> Select "Image Sequence" (VDub opens bmp, tga; VDMod - bmp, tga, png, jpg) and encode them with a certain framerate (fps)... during a playback, each image will be displayed 1/fps-seconds.

@nupogodi: whoops! i think youre right laugh.gif

@tongari: you can do it like Nupodgi says, but you will have to number every sequence: filename00.bmp to filename99.bmp (or whatever the number is).

but, like Nupogodi also said, there are better ways to do this... cant you burn them on a CD? (after archiving)

biggrin.gif Thanks

so there's no way i can have 2 different sets of sequences

( ex. Fight00- Fight99 and Hold00- Hold99 )

and combine them?

why not? say, encode each sequence as avi and merge these avi into a single file... but read, at first, a post which wise Stephan wrote at the very beginning smile.gif .

this could also be done if you give your first sequence the number 000 to 099 and then the next sequence the same filename with number 100 to 199, so it would load the 2 sequences in one time, so you could also encode it at one time

BUT when importing image sequences its important that the (frame)size of the images is the same, it wont work otherwise

what i'm doing is taking existing scenes from video on my computer, but i want to time sync them to music ( it's a music video) so i want to use lip and motion syncing. thats why im using image files, i want to be able to import them into VDub all at once and work more from there.

i think the easiest way is using Irfanview (its free) and do a 'batch rename'. it will let you choose how much digits you want to use and at which number you want to start.
