Is it possible to join two video files?

Is there any way i can use mac os to join two AVI files together, and then create a new copy of the combined video to show on my iPad. if i can avoid using iMovie that would be great.
thanks

As far as i know QuickTime can not support all kinds of AVI, and even it can join AVI files into one, the joined AVI files cannot be imported to iTunes, iPad, iPod, iPhone for playback.
I know a step by step guide on how to merge video files on Mac or Windows
This guide support join all kinds of video and audio formats like MP4, AVI, MPEG, MPG, VOB, MOV, RM, RMVB, 3GP, ASF, WMV, WTV, DVR, DivX, Xvid, M4V, MKV, FLV, F4V, SWF, WebM, OGV, Apple ProRes, AVCHD, MTS, M2TS, M2T, MXF, MVI, DAT, MOD, TOD, MPV, OGM, MP3, WAV, WMA, M4A, FLAC, M4B, AAC, AC3, APE, AIFF, Apple Lossless ALAC, VOC, QCP, AMR, AWB, DTS, AU, RA, OGG and etc
And you can join video files as well convert video to other video or audio formats or keep the same video format as the original one.
And you can also merger several video files even they are not in the same video format.
Hope it helps more or less

Is it possible to play two audio files simultaneously.

Hi,
Is it possible to play two audio files simultaneously.
I modified the 'SpeakHere' to play two audio files simultaneously, it worked perfectly on simulator but get hanged on iphone.
To this I implemented NSTimer, which regularly checks for both player instance every second.As soon as any player gets stopped Timer task stops the second one forcefully and again starts both.
thanks.

Hi Jay
Do you have the eLearning Suite? If so, you have Adobe Presenter available to you. If you don't, you should be able to download the Presenter installation file and evaluate it.
Presenter is an add in for PowerPoint. The neat thing about it is that it provides for a Table of Contents type of functionality as you see is configured in Captivate. But the twist with that is you are able to do something you cannot do in Captivate. You are able to insert videos inside the TOC area!

Possible to Join Two Mono Tracks to Stereo, Or Change Panning of a Stereo?

In the new Garage Band 11, is it possible to Join Two Mono Tracks to Stereo, or Change the Panning of a Stereo track, or split a stereo track into two mono files?
Sometimes it would be convenient when I have a lot of tracks to combine two mono tracks into one stereo track to eliminate an additional track.
Also, I find that I often want to change the panning of a stereo track to either make it wider, or merge the two channels, even reverse L&R. If no way to change the panning of a stereo track can a stereo track be split into two mono tracks to be panned differently?

only by exporting the two tracks
or Change the Panning of a Stereo track
you can pan a stereo track in every version of GB with the pan knob
or split a stereo track into two mono files?

that's different. no, you'd have to split the track into two mono files as described above.
even reverse L&R.

What is the best way to edit/sync two video files?

Has anyone had experience with editing 2 movies files? I have recently taken video with 2 cameras of the same quality and am attempting to 'merge' the two video files. What's the best way to 'sync' the 2 files?
Thanks

The real answer is to do this in Final Cut Pro X with the new multicam feature with automatic syncing using the audio wave forms.
However, it is quite possible in iMovie.
Here is how I did it in iMovie.
I recently did this for a video of my niece's senior voice recital. (Video is below)
The key is to use the Cutaway feature of iMovie. If you are not familiar with Cutaway,here is a good tutorial from Ken Stone.
I used the side camera as my base clips, and used the back camera as the cutaway clips. The back camera audio track was OK but had too much coughing and noise.
Here are tips for getting it lined up perfectly.
1) In iMovie/Preferences make sure that you check "Display Time as hh:mm:ss:frames" so you can edit to the frame level. (Also, select "Show Advanced Tools so you get the Cutaway feature)
2) In the iMovie Project View, set the thumbnail slider to 1/2 second so you have a great deal of control.
3) Initially, leave the volume at 100% on the Cutaway track, so that both tracks are playing. You can hear when they are off.
4) Click the "Waveforms" button in the Project view, so you get a visual cue of how to line up the tracks.
5) Between the audible cues and the visual cues, you can nudge the cutaway back and forth one frame at a time by dragging until you have it perfect.
6) When it is lined up to your satisfaction, set the volume slider of the Cutaway track to zero, and turn off the waveforms. You can also move the thumbnail slider back to 5 seconds or so.
7) For some of the fine work, I switched to the "single row timeline view". This slows you down a bit, but lets you see the waveforms more clearly.
8) I made heavy use of the iMovie Comment Marker feature. I watched the whole base video/audio track and inserted comment markers at the points where I wanted the Cutaway to begin and end. For example, a comment might say "Insert Cutaway 1". I would usually time the cutaway so it started at a distinct audio event, such as when the piano start. This comment marker made it easy to drag my cutaway to a point that was approximately correct.
9) If you need to do a lot of cutaways, I find that it helps to use the SPLIT CLIP command in your project. This way you can have a single cutaway per clip, and this makes it easier to manage and is less processor and memory intensive for iMovie. I would use the comments to mark the entry and exit points of the cutaway as described above. I would then select that portion of the clip that included these markers plus a little more, so that a yellow border is around the selection. Then right-click/SPLIT CLIP (or CLIP/SPLIT CLIP in the top menu). This does not physically splt the clip within the Event. It only virtually splits the clip in the project.

How to play the two video files simultaneously in Xletview

Hi All,
How to play the two video files simultaneously in Xletview. But only one video must be visible to user and the other video must run in the background(Invisible to user). I need to implement like broadcasting channel, I don't want to stop the current video while switching to another video and vice versa.
Is it possible to do in Xletview 0.3.6?. Or Anybody tried this?...
Sourab.

I think no one try this with xletview!
xletview is not for that!

How can I combine two video files into one finished file?

I'm making a video of a guitar player. I'm using two cameras simultaneously. One gives the overall wide shot, and the other is zoomed in on his hands. Both cameras run at the same time. I would like to use the wide shot as the main video, and occasionally fade in clips from the zoomed in shot to show details of his playing. I can manually line up both files so they are synchronized. How do I cut a clip out of the main (wide) shot, leave the gap there, and insert a clip from the closeup? I'm putting the two video files on two of the video timelines and synchronizing them that way.
Any suggestions on how to proceed?

The effect you are looking for is 'Picture in Picture'. If you want the gap to be there for the duration of the timeline add some 'black video' - from the Tasks Pane> New Item - on the video track above the main track. Resize / position it to where you wish it to be.
Then with your second clip (now on video track 3)
Do the same sizing / positioning for it.
split video and audio and delete or disable the audio.
Cut it where you want the various start/ends of the fade to be.
Delete, or just disable (right-click) the unnecessary segments.
Apply fade in / out to the remaining segments.
[EDIT]
Also check out the 'Presets' in Video Effects. There are a variety of PiP presets that may do what you need.

Play two video files at the same time.

I am trying to play two video files at the same time. I create two threads, each of which has its own frame, playing button, and builds its own graph to play the file. Now everything seems works except that when the first file is being played and I hit PLAY
to play the second file, the program plays the second file but the first one is paused; furthermore the control button has no response for the first one. Did I miss anything? Can anyone help me figure out the problem?
Best,
Fayin

You don't need separate threads for 2+ playback pipelines because the filters create worker threads internally and don't block execution on calling thread.
If you decide to keep separate threads, you will have to follow Michel's advice and have message pumps on those threads.
You can also have both files in the same graph, in which case you have perfect sync between them (both start playing together in sync), however you cannot pause/stop/run files separately.
The problem you described is most likely not a DirectShow problem and is rather about generic threading, COM or window messaging.

Select them and use the "join" menuItem (though there's generally no reason to do so unless you're trying to save them as a loop)

Is it possible to join two single pages in a pdf into one double page spread?

Is it possible to take two single pages from separate pdf documents and combine them as one double page spread?
If it is possible could someone describe how it is done please?

The InDesign method Steve mentions is the best option. You can also place it in Illustrator as an import but you'll need to have the same fonts as the PDF file. This option will allow you to edit the files, pending what objects are editable. It will have a few quirks, and the text lines might be separate objects.
I'd go InDesign, but just in case you don't have ID, you can use Illustrator, but be prepared for a little work.

Where did the possibility to join two smooth endpoints into one go?

I used get a dialog box when joining two overlapping endpoint, that is if they truly were on top of each other. I would get a dialog box when selecting two endpoints and pressing cmd+j where I could choose either smooth or corner.
Now in Illustrator CS6 I do not get any dialog box no matter what I do and it always joins the two endpoints as corner even thoug they both started out as smooth - that is had both their arms. Is there another way to do this now?

Well ... since I use "Average and join" all the time and very seldom only "Join" I just switched the shortcuts, so now Join has the 4-keys shortcut.
Actually I can't think of a time I needed the corner join. Most of the time I use Pen Tool, and join paths with that, and with corner joins I just remove any excess points, but with more difficult smooth path constructions I find I often need the smooth join.
I never figured why one can't select more than one arm like you can select more than one point ... it would make altering symetric paths symetrically so much easier.

How do you join multiple video files?

I have multiple video files, all encoded with same codec, together so that I have 1 single large file. How do I do it with FCP? Ive tried doing it, but for some reason the final file is twice as large as the sum of the individual files...
Thanks!!

When you export an FCP edit, you get one file from many.
If the individual files are all sequenced on one track, with no gaps between them,
AND everything is all the same codec, the output file will be approx. the same size
as the sum of the input files.
You might be accidentally using a different codec, however. Verify by opening
a source clip and your export clip in QuickTime Player, and selecting Get Info.
Compare pixel dimensions, frame rate, etc.

Is it possible to play two videos at the same time in Captivate 4

My idea is to create some e-learning material which shows a screencast of a powerpoint presentation and a video in the top left corner of the screen showing somebody presenting the slides.
Does anybody know if it is possible to do this with Captivate 4?
I know this functionality is provided in Adobe Director.
Any help regarding this will be greatly appreciated
Kind Regards
Jay

Is it possible to recover lost video files from a backup gone wrong?

Hi, my brother in-law was backing up his Macbook (OS X 10.7.5) videos to a seagate eternal hard drive and I managed to accidentally knock it and disconnect it during the process. Some of the videos were still on the computer but some got deleted. is there any way to recover these files??
Thanks

It sounds like the files are gone. In the future if something is important, have it backed up in more than one place.
If you don't have a clone backup it's time to start. Just like a seat belt and an air bag protect you in different ways when driving, you need both Time Machine and a clone for full protection.
Storing files "in the Cloud" is also helpful. I like DropBox, but there are other services like Microsoft's OneDrive, box.com etc that are helpful. I like DropBox because it allows you to upload files larger than 2GB.
