reconstruct mpg timestamp ?

[eenghooda]

Hello All,
I have mpg file which is the output of joining two mpg files , it's timestamp is not right .
The length of the file (as displayed in it's info) is only of the second file , when it's played in VLC It counts to from 00:00 till it reaches the joining point then back to 00:00 and up till the end.

in other players (WMP & MPC) it reaches the end of the indicated length then continues playing without the ability to go back or forth.

is there a solution for this that keeps the file's audio video sync intact ?

Various players may play a video that is incorrectly joined but the total time , seeking, etc. may not work. It sounds like this a case where the 2 videos may have been joined incorrectly.

Thank You for your reply.

is that hopeless case ?

What did you join with? Several joiners are crap....

Or try "remux" the joined mpg as it might fix the headers:
Add the mpg in avidemux, under video and audio choose copy. Format mpg. Save as a new mpg.
Or use the old tmpgenc, under file->video tools, simple multiplexer add the mpg and make a new mpg.
Or use ffmpeg, ffmpeg -i video.mpg -c copy newvideo.mpg

Thanks a lot for that solution Just tried ffmepg and it did work perfectly.
I used TSplayer to join the files , It was the only joiner I Tried that didn't alter audio video sync of my DVB recorded files after trimming ads.
