Needing help with avi.

[Kogarasumaru]

I recently downloaded an avi. rapidshare direct download. I used VLC and saw the first file 001 and tried using VLC again to see the second one 002 but it says
Unrecognized format. How do I get to see the other files? Do I need to download something? Please help.

You need to merge the files. Can be done via command line (e.g. "copy /b [filename].avi.* [filename].avi" on windows or via a program to split and merge files (search this board I think there's on thread for recommendations... HJSplit or something.)

Yes, as wotaku said, the files need to be joined in order to view the whole thing.

HJSplit will do the job for you.
