I just recently got a laptop PC, generally use a Mac. In any case, in the past I've downloaded mpg files but the Mac can't handle them well.

Basically what I would like to try and accomplish is taking various clips and putting them all together and then burn to a dvd or cd or something.

What PC software is good to use for that? For example if you go here

Say to download all the clips and put them together so its one long clip. Once in a while I find a good one I'd like to save.

Thanks!

Well, there's a couple of ways you can do this.

With the example you give:
If you have a number of MPGs, all from the same scene, you can use a DOS command to concatinate them. Say you have 9 mpgs, called gayporn1.mpg - gayporn9.mpg. All you need to do is go to DOS prompt, change to the directory those mpgs are in, and type:

copy /b gayporn* gayporn.mpg

This will make a mpg called gayporn.mpg out of all of your smaller files. Note that this works best for movies that are all from the same scene (and have similar names, and are the same resolution).

If you have a bunch of random movies you want to burn to cd or DVD, you can use a program like ULead DVD Factory (available on eBay for cheap). That's what I use... it came free with my DVD burner, and it works great.

Thanks! Actually I figured it out too. I saved all the mini clips, then put them together in Movie factory, saved as an avi clip, then burned to dvd using iDVD.

Its pretty cool although seeing it on my tv screen was a bit pixelly, which is understandable considering the rez of the clips.

It was just something I wanted to try and play around with.
