javicle/bin/jconcat

#!/bin/bash
#
# Concatenate media files
#
# Usage:
#
#    jconcat out-file in-file-1 [in-file-2 ...]
#
# out-file  : output file
# in-file-N : input files
#
# BEWARE SHELL WILDCARDS!
# Shell wildcards will match files in non-deterministic order, meaning that
# your combined file will be assembled out of order.
#
# If you are combining files that were split with `jvc` (or `jsplit`), then
# sorting them by time (oldest first) is sufficient.
#
# For example, do this:
#
#    jconcat combined-file.mp4 $(ls -1tr path/to/parts*.mp4)
#
# NOT THIS:
#
#    jconcat combined-file.mp4 path/to/parts*.mp4  # args not ordered!
