Merging and Exporting Video
You can merge several video files into a single file, and export it in AVI format. You can also choose to
export the file in EXE format which allows you to play video with any multimedia player.
Note: The maximum size of the merged file is 2 GB for FAT32 and 4 GB for NTFS. If the merged file
is over the limit, it will be split up into another file.

3. Click the Save As AVI button (No. 2, Figure 4-2). This dialog box appears.
