I used cat in a similar way on Unix/Solaris in the 80'ties and 90'ties, after split(ing) larger files for storage on two or more 1,44MB diskettes :) As I also wrote in another post it "looks like video files (DV, MPG and AVI) might be joined together with Linux cat and when needed resync audio/video with mplayer/mencoder http://www.arsgeek.com/?p=435 I wonder if there is a special reason why audio and video on AVI videofiles requires to be resynced after (con)cat(enating), while not neccessary for DV and MPG files?
