Hi,

I'm looking for a free tool that can split an .avi automatically
into chunks of less than 2 GB ... in order to copy them to an
external HDD in FAT.

I've searched Google and found many tools, but none of them really
work for me. They are either not free or they don't accept my
standard Premiere .avi files or they don't work automatically or
they don't work at all!


Doesn't VirtualDub do this? The "output sequencail avi" (or what
ever the phrasing is) option, never having had a need to use this
function I might be wrong though.

All I can find in my version of VirtualDub (1.6.17) is manually
indicating what portion you want of a file and then save that as a
new .avi. But maybe there are newer versions of VirtualDub with an
automatic option. I'll look into it.

Lenny

Save as segmented avi. under File.


Thanks! Can't believe that was right under my nose. :-)

Lenny



If you ever have the need to do this with a MPEG or TS file then ProjectX
will do it.
