Choose the first clip for its dimensions
The first clip in the ordered list sets the width and height of the combined result. Moving a different recording into first place can therefore change the framing of every later shot. Each clip fits inside that rectangle without cropping or stretching; black bars fill any unused area when shapes differ. Put a landscape recording first for a wide output, or a portrait recording first for a tall one. Review the sequence again after changing the order, especially when it contains several aspect ratios.
Keep audio aligned across silent sections
Supported sound follows each clip into the final file. Audio is decoded and encoded as AAC, with a common stereo, 48 kHz output. A recording without audio still occupies its full time range, leaving a silent section before the next clip begins. If a source has an audio track the browser cannot decode, the merge stops and asks for a supported file or a muted version. This joiner does not add background music or blend the sound across the cuts.
Prepare clips before building the sequence
The tool places complete clips end to end with straight cuts. Remove unwanted opening pauses or endings before joining if you want each shot to start immediately. The selection accepts two to ten videos with a combined duration of up to three minutes and a combined size of 512 MB. Each input also needs to pass the resolution and codec checks. A small total file size does not override a clip that is too large in pixel dimensions or cannot be decoded.
Expect a newly encoded MP4
The merge creates H.264 video rather than simply placing the original compressed tracks in a new container. Frames are drawn into the shared output dimensions, and supported sound is encoded as AAC when present. This makes one downloadable MP4, but it can change quality and file size. Keep the individual sources for later revisions. Review the first shot, each transition between recordings, and the final shot so that framing changes, silent gaps, or an unintended order are caught before sharing.
