suggestion; include the ability to merge files

Open marrie opened this issue 3 years ago • 5 comments

I'm one who merges files, a lot. This would actually be useful if I could choose a preset taht could allow me to merge 2 or more files together into one and I could then paste in the command into the command line. Loving the interface so far btw.

Hi @marrie, thanks for the suggestion. I actually have this on my TODO for this project, but haven't had much of a chance to implement. I will leave this open as a TODO and hopefully get to this soon. Thank you!

Hi @marrie, do you have an example ffmpeg command you're using to merge files that I can use as a reference?

I actually do not. I tried to look for examples, I know you can use the cat command as well to make a list of files to merge. hoever I could not make the that work either.

@marrie Ok, no worries. Adding multiple inputs shouldn't be a problem. However, since there are multiple methods of concatenating files, like using concat protocol, video filter or the demuxer depending on the input, it may be more complex adding this to the interface than I originally thought. I'll need to think on this for a bit.

No no, take your time. I can't code, I'm one to brake things. Hehaha. Thanks for even considering this.
