Combining 2 movies to one file?

[boe]

Hello,

I was going to combine 2 parts of the hobbit movie that didn't fit on one BD. I have the ISOs that I've converted to MKV. Each MKV plays fine. I add both using MKVmerge and get a bigger file - about the size of each file combined. But when I try to play it back - it stops at the end of the first MKV file even though the file is much larger.

Can anyone spoon feed me the proper way to create a single MKV file out of 2 that plays all the way through?

Thanks

Did you use append in mkvmergegui? Or else are you making a mkv with two video tracks and audio tracks.

Thanks! Wonderfully easy. Apparently I need to order a new brain - this one is defective.

I have also made that mistake. Several times also...
