cd1.avi cd2.avi Post Process Help

Post by ralieghnet »

I've been searching for how to merge two files into a single file. I have two files cd1.avi and cd2.avi
In all my searches I have found example of cat, ffmpeg, avconv, avidemux. In each of these programs they all have the same problem they can not read the file. I'm using Ubuntu 14.04 Server. I have even tried to copy the file to a windows machine and still I can not read the files. I know that if I place the folder into my DLNA server I can watch the movie, but I would like to compress the movie and be able to take it on the road with me on a tablet.

Here are the commands I've tried.

avimerge:
avimerge -o test.avi -i The\ Raid\ 2\ cd1.wmv The\ Raid\ 2\ cd2.wmv
scanning file The Raid 2 cd1.wmv for video/audio parameter
[avilib.c] AVI open: avilib - Not an AVI file

avconv:
avconv -i The\ Raid\ 2\ cd1.wmv -i The\ Raid\ 2\ cd2.wmv -vcodec copy -acodec copy test.wmv
avconv version 9.18-6:9.18-0ubuntu0.14.04.1, Copyright (c) 2000-2014 the Libav developers
built on Mar 16 2015 13:19:10 with gcc 4.8 (Ubuntu 4.8.2-19ubuntu1)
The Raid 2 cd1.wmv: Invalid data found when processing input

avprobe:
avprobe The\ Raid\ 2\ cd1.wmv
avprobe version 9.18-6:9.18-0ubuntu0.14.04.1, Copyright (c) 2007-2014 the Libav developers
built on Mar 16 2015 13:19:10 with gcc 4.8 (Ubuntu 4.8.2-19ubuntu1)
The Raid 2 cd1.wmv: Invalid data found when processing input
# avprobe output
(no output shown)

This is the same results for any other format I try.

That seems the answer to your question, I suppose.
And thus not a problem with merge, or post processing, or SABnzbd

No, that's OK. The problem is the content you try to use: the tools you use say it's invalid. So solve that. As this SABnzbd, I would say: find other WMV-files
