When I run this command % mkvmerge -v -o rm.mkv rm1.mkv rm2.mkv rm3.mkv rm4.mkv rm5.mkv the files appear to merge (and the output file that is created is appropriately large (9GB)) but when playing the output file, I’m only able to view the first input file (12 minutes). Is there something wrong with my command syntax?
Here’s the output from the run:
% mkvmerge -v -o rm.mkv rm1.mkv rm2.mkv rm3.mkv rm4.mkv rm5.mkv
