I still don’t understand what path to specify. I put the 2 mp4 files in the path “This PC > Videos > Video Formats for Testing > Merge Videos VLC”.
I went to the files folder and ran Command Prompt and typed exactly what the tutorial said (above).
I read another tutorial and it said this to merge mp4 files in VLC:
– Step 3. Merge videos with command-line feature.
Create a new folder and move all your videos need to be merged to here.
Hold “Shift” and right-click on the new folder.
Select “Open command window here”.
Type the following command and press “Enter” to enable VLC to merge your videos.
“vlc_location” file1.mp4 file2.mp4 –sout “#gather:std{access=file,dst=final.mp4}” –sout-keep
I tried this and when I hit “Shift” and right-clicked on the file folder I didn’t see any “Open Command Window Here”.
(I also tried joining the 2 H264/mp4 files with “OpenShot Video Editor” and there were hundreds of file type options to choose from. (File resolution of each mp4 is 706×478, 29.97 fps ). So I chose “NTSC 720×480 29.97 fps” and it joined the files but the file size came out 50% larger than the original files. Then I tried “WVGA 720×480 29.97 fps” and it did the same thing with 50% larger file size.)
