Hi, surgtech2006.
Pitcher error... (my bad).
A couple of things may have brought up the error:
zipsplit handles only files up to 2Gb
As an exercise, I tried zip on a knoppix iso of 4Gb. It did it, but the disk
was always moaning because of swap file use, and I have 1.5Gb RAM.
Not enough RAM may cause an error with zip if you don't specify a
temp folder.
So... video files are already in a kind of compressed state, aren't they?
So let's try another, even simpler, route.
I got good results splitting my big knoppix iso with
split -- not zipsplit.
Code: Select all
split -b 100M knoppix-7.3.iso knoppix-7.3_iso-
The swap file wasn't used with split (no moaning disk).
I believe that you should get good results too with:
Code: Select all
split -b 100M allmans.vid allmans_vid-
-b 100M is the desired size of the cut (100M means 100 MegaBytes)
allmans.vid, the file name
allmans_vid-, the filename for the cuts. If you don't use a filename
template for the cuts, the cuts will be named xaa, xab, xac, and so on.
As the file is cut, the parts will have the name
allmans_vid-aa, allmans_vid-ab, allmans_vid-ac, allmans_vid-ad, and so on.
To recreate the complete file from the cuts at the other end, use the
> cat < command, as in:
In your case:
