NAME¶
avisplit - split AVI-files into chunks of a maximum sizeSYNOPSIS¶
avisplit [ -i file -o base [ -s size ] [ -H num ] [ -t s1-s2[,s3-s4,..] -c -m -b num -f commentfile ] ] [ -v ]COPYRIGHT¶
avisplit is Copyright (C) by Thomas Oestreich.DESCRIPTION¶
avisplit splits a single AVI-file into chunks of size size.OPTIONS¶
- -i file
- Specify the filename of the file to split into chunks.
- -o base
- Specify the base of the output filename(s) avisplit will then split to base-%04d.avi
- -s size
- Use this option to specify the maximum size (in units of MB) of the chunks avisplit should create. 0 means dechunk, create as many files as possible.
- -H num
- Create only the first num chunks then exit.
- -t s1-s2[,s3-s4,..]
- Split the input file based on time/framecode (hh:mm:ss.ms)
- -c
- Together with -t. Merge all segments into one AVI-File again instead generating seperate files.
- -m
- Together with -t. Force split at upper bondary instead of lower border.
- -b num
- Specify if avisplit should write an VBR mp3 header into the AVI file. Default is 1 because it does not hurt. num is either 1 or 0.
- -f commentfile
- Read AVI tombstone data for header comments from commentfile. See /docs/avi_comments.txt for a sample.
- -v
- Print only version information and exit.
EXAMPLES¶
The command avisplit -s 700 -i my_file.avi will split the file my_file.avi into chunks which's maximum size will not exceed 700 MB, i.e. they will fit onto a CD, each. The created chunks will be named my_file.avi-0000, my_file.avi-0001, etc. avisplit -i my_file.avi -c -o out.avi -t 00:10:00-00:11:00,00:13:00-00:14:00 will grab Minutes 10 to 11 and 13 to 14 from my_file.avi and merge it into out.aviBAD SYNCH¶
When you split a file with avisplit and the A/V sync for the first file is OK but the sync on all successive files is bad then have a look at the output of tcprobe(1) (shortend).| V: 25.000 fps, codec=dvsd, frames=250, width=720, height=576
| A: 48000 Hz, format=0x01, bits=16, channels=2, bitrate=1536 kbps,
| 10 chunks, 1920000 bytes
transcode -i in.avi -P1 -N 0x1 -y raw -o
out.avi
(of course -N 0x1 is not correct for all AVI files). Now look at tcprobe again
