yeh i figured that out.. had to move them out of the same folder..

anyway...

why is it when i tried and save the joined up avi... its like 39gb!?? wtf... all the videos added up are only 3gb.....

waa?

how can i make it a normal size!

Bitrate determines size. Bitrate x Running Time = Filesize. Use a bitrate calculator. Tell it how big you want the file to be, how long it runs for, and use the result it gives you when you encode.

Video -> Compression. Choose a codec, configure it, then go to File->Save AVI
