I wonder whether there's a tool under debian for "repairing" an avi. That way you could split it with whatever "split" tools have been suggested, and then run a repair utility on the chunks, to rebuild their (whassitcalled... header?)... That way all the pieces should be playable, and have sane length info etc. so you can seek in them and all that good stuff. Sorry I can't suggest an actual tool though... I just rembember finding such a thing once upon a time (in a galaxy far, far away) under Windoze... Came in handy for patching up broken P2P downloads... -- ,-----------------------------------------------------------------------------. > -ScruLoose- | You don't have a soul.
