I've just started using nicesplice (and how wonderful it is, thank you).
I'm having problems joining two recordings: the result is much shorter than it should be.
To test it out, I used a pair of recordings I had, of the same programme (two transmissions on the same channel on consecutive days). The first recording was missing the beginning, the second missing the end. Creating a single recording that covered the whole programme seemed like a good test.
I used bookmarks to trim both recordings; that left me with a 1 minute recording that contained the start, and an almost hour long recording that had the rest.
I then used the cmdline to join them, but the result is only 2 minutes long:
The odd thing is that the file sizes looked correct: the joined file was roughly the sum of the sizes of the other 2 files. But when playing the joined file, I get the 1st minute from the first file, then there's an obvious join, but it jumps to the last minute of the second file.
If I play both individual files, they look entirely correct. Neither file has any bookmarks.
I'm happy to supply whatever further information might be required, to shed any light on this, but the obvious oddness in the extract above (New Program Length) seems to sum it up.
Any ideas, please? thanks much...
