Re: [Motion-user] Stringing the avi's together

[bob <bob...@gm...>]

yeah.. I use a cron job that runs a little script once a week..

something like

#!/bin/bash
outfile=$(date +%F)
cd /home/bob/disk-1/security
cat barcam* > all.avi
mencoder -forceidx -fps 24 -ovc copy -oac copy -o 
$outfile.tavern-camera.avi all.avi
rm all.avi
rm -f barcam*
cat outside* > all.avi
mencoder -forceidx -fps 24 -ovc copy -oac copy -o 
$outfile.outside-camera.avi all.avi
rm all.avi
rm -f outside*


I fix the fps rate since I record at 3fps and you have to force the 
index to get a proper vid after you concatenate them together.. 
Whatever, it's a general guide.
