Youtube MP4 double image video

[leandro]

Hey everyone.
I downloaded a bunch of mp4 720p videos from youtube and i got the video with double image frames (see attachment).
That must be a kind of protection.
Is there a way to 'join' them without re-encoding/editing the video? I mean, if the youtube player can play it normally there may be some trick there...

Thanks!

[poisondeathray]

maybe something wrong with your media player ?

try another one e.g. mpchc, vlc, smplayer etc....

Does the video you downloaded have the 3D play option in YouTube? That would explain why it is double image. The YouTube player only displays one of the sides when in 2D mode.

Not a 3D video.

tested with mplayer, VLC and MPC HC
the video is split in all of them.
