Joining files with hjsplit

[maurice594]

Good day to all members, this is my first post (hope not my last). I hope this is the correct section please be gentle if not????

I have 3 programs I recorded from the tv and I am trying to join them together into 1 file using hjsplit, I have no problem using this program if I download from say RS. I have tried to give each file .001 as the instructions say but I cannot get it to recognise the files when I open the "Input File" button.
I coverted the files to VOB using CovertxtoDVD and gave each VOB file the .001 .002 ending as the instructions from the net (Googled ) say.
As any member had any experience with this program who can advise me please.

You could try vobmerge instead.

HJsplit only joins files split with it.

Even if you manage to join several VOB files together with HjSplit you won't have a proper VOB file as a result. Some tools will ignore everything past the original first VOB file. But just as a test, I was able to join unrelated VOB files with HjSplit, simply by renaming them x.vob.001, x.vob.002...

Thanks jagabo, I see where I went wrong as well, I did not call my files X.vob.001 etc; I called them x.001,002 etc.
