problem with HJ split

[Sir Spunkalot]

Hi there, hope someone can help on this. i have used hj join for ages to join hj split movies....this week i have tried to download and join seal drives movies submitted by Si Kemp i downloaded ok and the files sit in my download folder but show a microsoft movie player icon and when i attempt to join them the hj joiner does not see the slipt files in the folder even though they are tagged with .001etc
I also downloaded to my mac to see if i could join them there using Split&Concat program on mac but no joy there either.

any ideas?

Cheers in advance

It sounds like the files have a double extention: movie.001.wmv

or something like that.
you can check this by doing:

Start --> Run --> "cmd" --> Ok

A dos box opens up now, use the follow commands:

C:\Documents and Settings\user>dir (enter)

Dir --> shows the directory content

cd.. --> go to the uper directory
(in this exampel C:\Documenst and Settings> )

cd download --> brings you in the specified directory
(in this exampel C:\Documenst and Settings\Download>)

D: --> Gets you to the specified drive.

Now move to your download directory
(for exampel D:\download)

C:\Documents and Settings\user>d: (enter)
D:\>cd dowload(enter)

Next take a look at the file (exampel file name "movie.001"
D:\Download>dir movie.*(enter) USE A *!

if the output is:
movie.001.wmv then give the following command:
D:\download>rename movie.001.wmv movie.001 (enter)

Now the file is hjsplit ready
Check all the files the same way (002,003,etc)

PS: make a backup first ;-)

Hope i explaint it ok
hope it helps

Some of those movies are of a larger than usual size and are seperate movies which don't need joining.

Which ones are you having problems with - is it all or just a particular movie

What is the problem with joining them ?
I use "File Splitter & Joiner" (FFSJ) in stead of hjsplit. Maybe you can try this to solve your problems.
I did join and see that vid, and it is worth the hassle.
