join mov files without reencofing

[samifox]

Hi ,
I like to join few mov files. I find “Open Video Joiner” but it reencode the video. So im looking for an application that joins moves without the need to reencode it. Any idea?

Not counting QT Alt.,

ALL apps that work with Quicktime MOV files, do so by using Quicktime. The best thing for this then is QTPro.

Even then, unless it's actually an MP4, you might still be in trouble.
You have 2 choices--SaveAs and Export. SaveAs will do exactly as you want, but it does it by creating a 2nd "layer" of video, muxed along with the 1st. Most apps shouldn't have trouble reading this file, but you never know.
The other option, Export, will invariably re-encode, unless you happen to be using the same codec and have no changes to the video, and then it has to recognize the fact that it can losslessly "transcode" (not the correct term in this case, but that's what THEY use), which you should then check the box for. This works for QT-DV, but I don't know about the other codecs.

Good luck,
Scott
