Prepending PNG file to MPG file?

[yetanotherlogin]

Hello

I have a video file that looks like this:

Input #0, mpeg, from 'input.mpg':
  Duration: 01:00:07.83, start: 0.008000, bitrate: 9412 kb/s
    Stream #0:0[0x1bf]: Data: dvd_nav_packet
    Stream #0:1[0x1e0]: Video: mpeg2video (Main), yuv420p(tv), 720x576 [SAR 64:4
5 DAR 16:9], max. 9100 kb/s, 25 fps, 25 tbr, 90k tbn, 50 tbc
    Stream #0:2[0x80]: Audio: ac3, 48000 Hz, 5.1(side), fltp, 448 kb/s
Unsupported codec with id 1145979222 for input stream 0

I'd simply like to prepend a PNG picture for a few seconds: Can Corel VideoStudio X5 simply create a new file without re-encoding the video + audio streams of the original file?

If not, is there a free tool for Windows that can do this?

Thank you.

there are several editors that can combine mpg video without re-encoding. you would need to convert the png to mpg first. womble and vegas are the ones that come to mind, but you should search the tools section for others. free you'll have to search for.

Thanks for the info.
