What are your requirements regarding codecs? Why use the AVI container as output? – slhck – 2013-12-10T07:00:02.457
By "combine" do you mean simply concatenate, or do you need to do some actual video editing (cutting, effects, etc.)? Please be specific. – Robin Green – 2013-12-10T08:19:39.163
Simply concatenate. Its just this old video I have that is split into three parts and I want to put it on YouTube as one file rather than. MyVideo-Part1, MyVideo-Part2, etc.
Id be open to any output file format that most video players will support (not wmv) – ThingWings – 2013-12-10T14:24:45.303

You could join them by concatenating with ffmpeg and convert to mp4. There are several threads which discuss that on Superuser. See this for instance.

ffmpeg -i "concat:videoone.wmv|videotwo.AVI|videothree.AVI" -c copy output.mp4 – ThingWings – 2013-12-11T00:39:37.013
You cannot copy the codecs (
-c copy) if you have three different videos. Also, theconcatprotocol doesn't work for most containers/codecs. Please show us the output offfmpeg -i videoone.wmv -i videotwo.AVI -i videothree.AVI. – slhck – 2013-12-11T06:06:18.973It sais I need to specifiy an output. I tried add output.AVI or output.mp4 on the end of that but get:
[mpeg4 @ 0x1379200] timebase 33333/1000000 not supported by MPEG 4 standard, the maximum admitted value for the timebase denominator is 65535 – ThingWings – 2013-12-11T12:40:08.947
The command does not produce any output, that was intentional. We'd just need to know some more info about your video codecs. Please [edit] your question to include the info (and don't forget you need to @-mention users so they get a reply). Thanks! – slhck – 2013-12-13T21:51:05.090
i think, if it's for youtube, you could try the editor : http://www.youtube.com/editor?feature=upload
