How to split MPEG files on GNU/Linux

You can easily split MPEG files on GNU/Linux with mpgtx. (yum install mpgtx on Fedora Core 9):

[root@sundaysister lennart]# mpgtx -2 /tmp/happ.mpg -b m
Now processing /tmp/happ.mpg [1/2] ... 100.00%
Now processing /tmp/happ.mpg [2/2] ... 100.00%

After this you will have the first parameter defines how many parts you want to split the second parameter (the MPEG file) to. After the process has finished you will have the splitted files in the directory you executed mpgtx from.

Have fun! Great for VCDS (Video-CDs) ;)
