It fills my head with cotton wool.

This morning I started on a job for a friend: bolting together some of his videos: 25 files, all MP4, all same resolution and audio / video codecs. Can I bolt 'em together to make 5 MP4 files, each around 2 hours? Should be about 1GB per file, since the total input is about 5GB. No problem, done it loads of times.

Off we go with Corel Videostudio X9 ... four hours for the first file, Computer running like a stunned slug on mogadons while it does it's thing. And the output size? 13.2GB for a 1.06GB total input...
Holy carp. OMG | :OMG:

Brain full of cotton wool finally says "didn't we used to do that with Avidemux?"
15 seconds per file, total size of all five files 5.33GB. Sorted.

I hate having a cold... Sigh | :sigh:
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...
