How to Merge MPEG Files
The MPEG (Moving Pictures Expert Group) format applies compression to video and audio streams, but it's still sometimes necessary to split large MPEGs into more manageable pieces. Merging MPEGs requires less precision than splitting them and reassembling them, and you won't have to pay for any software to merge your MPEG files. You can find plenty of free file merging utilities online.
