This is a strange question, but maybe there is an answer.
Basically I am wondering if its possible to combine the times of the items in a playlist into one continuous time count.
For example, if you have 3 videos each 20 minutes long. All together they add up to 60 minutes. When you play the playlist, the first video plays until 20 minutes, then the next video starts at 0:00, until 20:00, then the third video.
Is it be possible for the fist video to go until 20:00, then the second video to pick up but begin at 20:00, so that the time count runs as a full continuous hour instead of three 20 minute blocks?
The reason I ask is this:
I made a rip of a DVD with Nero Recode into Nero mp4 format. I used the setting to automatically do a second pass over lower quality parts in the video, so instead of one output mp4 file, there are several-
video.mp4
video_cut(1).mp4
video_cut(1)_cut(1).mp4
and so on.
If I just play the files in a playlist, I can watch the whole video without a problem, but the problem is that I want to use external subtitles for the whole thing.
The external subtitles are marked to play for the times of the entire video, for example:
0:03:09 - Timmy, do your homework
0:40:08 - Oh no!!
1:28:59 - Randolph always gets to nananananaa.....
But since the videos are chopped up into like about 30 minute intervals, its not possible to play the subtitles after the first segment.
I was thinking I could just link the files together into one, but Nero ShowTime mp4s are all crazy quality proprietary.
Or I could use Nero Vision to put them together, then export the compiled video, but that would need a whole new recoding.
Is there a way to just combine a playlist into one continuous time count?
