Hi,
Can someone please recommend a fast method to combine multiple mpeg-1
files into one big file.
I have always been under the inpression that:
cat a.mpg b.mpg c.mpg >> combined.mpg
would do what you want. This involves a physical coping of the files (as
opposed to linking them together), but aside from that, I think it meets
your requirements.

I was using the mpgtx tools join feature, but that
tool seems to corrupt the first 2-10 seconds of video on low fps mpegs.
Does anyone have any recommendations for me? speed is the key point.
Thanks in advance,
Jon
Have you tried "mencoder" from the "mplayer" package? I haven't tried
it myself, but I think it may be able to copy and repack the audio and
video streams. (I am not sure if it has mpeg output yet, but it is worth
a try).
