    Hi, I'm a complete newbie when it comes to using DOS/Command Line programs and I was reading a guide on how to back up blu rays (which i own) and make the split files playable on PS3 from an external hard drive and after splitting the file into smaller chunks I'm supposed to demux them with xport (which I downloaded but have no idea how to use).

    I'm given a command to use but when i double click the xport.exe it just opens and closes a DOS window in a millisecond, with no chance to enter anything.

    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Start->Run. Type cmd, then click OK. change directory to where you have your files. Type the full path to Xport, then add your parameters and press enter.

    Have you ever used a command lime before ?

    Not really. I can change the drive but don't really know how to navigate DOS to where my files are (the external drive).

    open a text file in the folder you have xport and the files in.
    write out the commandline.
    save as xport.bat
    double click xport.bat

    45tripp - Thanks for the help, that worked. Apparently I have to seperate each file into their own folders though because demuxing the second split video file overwrote the new audio file for the first.

    Now I can at least progress through the process and see if I can get these things to work. Thanks again.
