merge back to back recordings into one file?

Added by Martin Bednar about 12 years ago

hi, I'm using tvheadend (and loving it btw!) and have configured it to record local news (daily). However, these are separated into 3 separate programs (weather, news and sports) that air back to back. For each one I created an entry in the automatic recorder tab and got a dedicated recording profile. It works perfectly (even kicking current viewers when it wants to record, which is awesome!). One minor nuisance is : by recording 3 separate programs, I get 3 files. Is there any way these files could be merged into one file, or better : recorded into one contiguous file?

Thanks!

I doubt there's any way to do it in tvheadend, simply because these are recorded as separate events... you'd need to manually say "record from <now> until <then>". However, mkvmerge GUI and/or mkvtoolnix will concatenate the files for you if you want to join them.
