Hi again... Well, having the problems I'm having with the Panasonic encoder, I've gone back to TMPGEnc. Now, I love this program, but here's the problem, When I've grabbed a 5 minute video, which weighs in at about 3x1.9 GIG files, and encoded them, I need to batch them together to make the 1 file, but when I've used TMPGEnc's MPEG tools to join the files, the sound drops out between each joined segment. At least the Panasonic encoder does this seamlessly! Any help or ideas as to what I'm doing wrong would be great! Thanks!
