VLC Format Question

[7254278]

Hey guys,
I downlaod a couple of videos for photoshop tutorials. Wierd thing is they arent .vi or .mpg, they are 25 .rar files. If I play the one labaled as PART1 it plays for a minute. I guess the 25 .rar files are different parts of the video, split up. How can I play it continuosly all in one? Sorry if im not explainin myself clearly, its kinda wierd.

Stuffit should know how to merge the .rar files back into their single original file.

Note: Depending on the total size it can take a LONG time.

Is there any other way? Maybe like converting all the rar files into 1 .avi or into a .bin and .cue file?

Most multipart archives are designed to merge back together when opened by the right decompression program.

Hmmm well neither dropstuff or stuffit worked- Maybe Im just using it wrong.

Stuffit is your only choice, it may look like it froze or crashed but it is still working. just let it run if you on a DP G5 it will take 20 min if on a G4 it may take a hour...

Stuff it expander jsut says "format error" and creats a folder thats empty. Maybe im not doing what im supposed to. I need to make these 25 .rar files into one so i can watch it on VLC player,

Seem to remember having the same (or similar) problem before and this fixed it.
