How to deal with the .001, .002, etc. and .001.xtm., .002.xtm., etc. files ...
.001, .002, etc. files: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The .001, .002, etc. files that you sometimes encounter are the parts of one bigger file that has been split up in smaller segments with tools like the small freeware program HJSplit: [IMG]http://i36.*******.com/2rdx1tz.jpg[/IMG] HJSplit is just a tool to split up (bigger) files of any file format into smaller parts, the second functionality of HJSplit is to join the parts back together again. To rejoin the parts you first need to download all parts to the same folder on your computer (leave the .001, .002, etc. extensions as they are) and then join them with HJSplit: Run HJSplit > Join > Input File > browse to the location with the parts > open the .001 file (the only one you will see) > press Start and it gets joined. After making sure the rejoined file runs properly, you can go ahead and delete the .001, .002, etc. parts you will no longer need them. When a file that is split into those .001, .002, etc... parts is a .rar or .zip archive you can extract it after joining. HJSplit (298 kB)(good clean freeware, Windows 9x/2000/NT/ME/XP/Vista/7 (HJSplit 2.3), Mac, Linux, etc.) Needs no install just unzip and double click on the exe to run the program. HJSplit manual | How to join a file FFSJ: The Fastest File Splitter and Joiner -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- New alternative for HJSplit, its a bit faster and has some more options, its also clean freeware.

The freeware splitting/joining program that creates and can join these parts is called Xremsplit. Same as with HJSplit you need to to download all parts to the same folder on your computer to succesfully rejoin them. After making sure the rejoined file runs properly, you can go ahead and delete the .001.xtm, .002.xtm, etc. parts you will no longer need them.

Note on joining split parts: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- To prevent damaged joins make sure that all parts are downloaded, in the same folder/location and are named identical except for the split file extensions (.001, .002, .003, etc.) When you miss a part or have a wrongly named part you will end up with a incomplete join as these tools join from part 1 up and stop where the "chain" ends. filename.ext.001 filename.ext.002 filename.ext.003 <--------------------------------------------------- part .004 is missing filename.ext.005 filename.ext.006 filename.ext.007 When joining the files as listed above then the file joiner will only join parts .001, .002 & .003!!! you will have a incomplete and corrupt join. filename.ext.001 filename.ext.002 filename.ext.003 filename.ext.004 filename.ext.005 filenume.ext.006 <---------------------------------- not identicaly named part filename.ext.007 When joining the files as listed above then the file joiner will only join parts .001, .002, .003, .004 & .005!!! you will have a incomplete and corrupt join. Other thing to keep a eye on are the filesizes: all the parts must be exactly the same filesize only the last part is allowed to be smaller, when one of the first parts is smaller then the others it needs to be redownloaded or you will end up wit a corrupt file after the join. filename.ext.001 = 99,9 MB (104.857.000 bytes) filename.ext.002 = 99,9 MB (104.857.000 bytes) filename.ext.003 = 95,2 MB (99.858.692 bytes) <----- incomplete downloaded part filename.ext.004 = 99,9 MB (104.857.000 bytes) filename.ext.005 = 99,9 MB (104.857.000 bytes) filename.ext.006 = 99,9 MB (104.857.000 bytes) filename.ext.007 = 16,8 MB (17.630.672 bytes) In the example above filename.ext.003 is corrupted and needs to be downloaded again, when you still have a corrupt join and all first parts are exactly the same then most likely the last part is corrupt, redownload and try to extract. Should work then otherwise it could be that the file was allready corrupted before it was split. |
Wonderfully clear guidance. I spent two wretched hours trying to figure out how to operate hj split in order to join 001 and 002 files. Before thrusting my head into the gas oven I had a look at the tech advice here. I then joined the files and extracted them with .rar in seconds! Very many thanks for sharing your knowledge.

jZip Archive Utility
Quote from developer's page: "Create, open and extract Zip, TAR, GZip and 7-Zip. Open and extract from RAR and ISO".
What it doesn't mention, but what I believe makes this unique amongst similar utilities is its ability to join .001 files without the need for additional programs like HJSplit. Just right-click on the first file and unzip it as normal and it automatically joins the all the files in sequence. I should point out, however, that it will only join .001 files, it won't split them. You can download it from here: http://www.jzip.com/. Click on the Products tab on their web page and download the Corporate version which comes without any add-ons such as Google toobars etc. Regards. |
It appears that Xtremsplit is no longer freeware. At least, I haven't found a "free download" button to hit on their web page, only a "Telecharger" which requires you to select a payment method. The website is in french and beyond my limited translational abilities. Anyone know how to access the freeware?

This is what I get when hovering over or clicking the 'Telecharger' link; maybe you get something different- http://xtremsplit.free.fr/12/Xtremsplit.exe I put a version of Xtremsplit here that's preset to Anglais :D http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?wjwmizmah2n Quote:

I just tried my favorite file management utility, Total Commander, and it successfully joined the split files. This is the niftiest file management utility I've used. I've used it for years. It seems to be able to do about anything you'd like to do with files. It's shareware, and I bought my copy, but it doesn't seem to have a time limit. It just comes with a simple nag screen when you first run it.

joining files problem
Thanks for the great site and the advice and tutes.
I've been trying for about a week to join some files, my problem is this, the first "part' is in a Zip file, the other seven are not, the different join programs recognise the Zipped .001 file but not the other seven, if I extract the file from the ZIP, the joining programs don't recognise it. If I run the join program on the zip file it "joins" that one part, which I can then play. I just can't get the other seven files to be recognised, they all have the correct extensions .002.003.004 etc. Thanks for any help or advice I just can't find any info for this problem:( Mods if this is in the wrong place please move. |
zippo58,
please post the links for all files or at least their exact file names, includung extensions. |
thanks for looking Dario
Here are the links found on this forum(copied link location and pasted) http://rapidshare.com/files/23717036...s.1965.avi.001 http://rapidshare.com/files/23717036...s.1965.avi.002 http://rapidshare.com/files/23718148...s.1965.avi.003 http://rapidshare.com/files/23728047...s.1965.avi.004 http://rapidshare.com/files/23728614...s.1965.avi.005 http://rapidshare.com/files/23729152...s.1965.avi.006 http://rapidshare.com/files/23729852...s.1965.avi.007 http://rapidshare.com/files/23730116...s.1965.avi.008 And this is how the files now appear on my HD( a zip folder before the first and that little unknown file icon on all the rest) T.R.Ones.1965.avi T.R.Ones.1965.avi.002 T.R.Ones.1965.avi.003 T.R.Ones.1965.avi.004 T.R.Ones.1965.avi.005 T.R.Ones.1965.avi.006 T.R.Ones.1965.avi.007 T.R.Ones.1965.avi.008 the first file is the ZIP and has the .001 extension when I mouse over it, when I unzip it it looses the .001 extension? The zip file is the only one that Hjsplit will recognise. Thanks for taking the time with this Cheers Zippo58 |

HJsplit will only show the .001 file, but it will find the following files automatically if they are in the same folder. So just launch HJsplit, choose join and browse for the .001 file. Hit start and it works. Nice movie by the way! |
thanks again for looking, I know how it should work but it doesn't, guess I've done something wrong. When I select join and the .001 file all I get is the 001 file(eg 94 mb not 94x7+ 40 something mb for the last part).
Guess I'll try and find it elsewhere. The first part looks interesting. Thanks again:thumbsup: |

http://thumbnails21.imagebam.com/771...9f77091471.gif I think it doesn't work because you don't do as I say: Quote:

I've just tried it again, following your directions to the letter and still only get one 94 mb file(which is the size of the first part).
Maybe I should re download the first part and try again? No still no good. I think I might find another movie with fewer parts and try again. I'll let you know how I get on. Thanks again |
Just downloaded the first 3 files,they worked fine,all I can think of is you don't have all the files in the same folder.Make sure they are in the same folder, right click and select extract files here.

zippo, here is what I suggest: Right click on the .001 file and select "Properties". ----> Choose the "General" tab. -----> Look down to where it says "Opens with". -----> If it doesn't say "hjsplit.exe", then click the "Change" button and click "Browse"; change it so it points to hjsplit.exe. Once you've done this, the icon beside the .001 file should be a check mark. Double-clicking it will start HJsplit. You then select the .001 as the input file and proceed as described previously. As long as all the files are in the same folder as .001, HJsplit will join them and you will have your movie. |

OK what did I do, even though I was following the instructions my computer was recognising the .001 file as a Zip, when I changed it as instructed above to open with HJsplit still only the first part was viewable:( so I deleted the .002 file and redownloaded that, I then ran HJsplit again and BINGO all parts joined:thumbsup::thumbsup: I can only assume that the.002 file was somehow corrupted during the first download, and didn't allow HJsplit to locate the other files? Thank you all so much for your input it seemed a simple process and in the end it is. |

It's normal for the last one to be smaller, but if any of the other files aren't the same size, you know you have a problem. |
Great help site for us old farts trying to catch up with the bit, byte, & bite generation.
Live Long & Prosper |
Suppose I just want to see 1 part of a multi-part download; I don't want to stitch together Parts 1-4, I just want to see Part #2.
Can I use the program to just remove the "002" suffix at the end and watch that part solo ? :confused: |
That does not work PenthouseFan, all parts should be joined again to reconstruct the original file.
It is however oft possible to watch the incomplete file when the beginning is intact meaning that when you want to only see part 2 you could download parts 1 & 2 (.001 & .002) and join those (with HJSplit or simular), then you can watch the joined 2 opening parts in VLC or GOM Player: http://vintage-erotica-forum.com/t63...-or-audio.html But you then will have a incomplete file. (PS this will only work with media files (.avi, .mpg, etc) not with archives (.zip, .rar, etc.)) |
Just discovered that (free) RAR 'Extract Frog' does the same as jzip above.
http://download.cnet.com/Free-RAR-Ex...-10804840.html I was getting the 'invalid floating point operation' error message with HJspit - decided to unzip first - simple right click>extract - job's done. |
Just wondering what I'm doing wrong here?
I downloaded the 2 parts of Virginia from here: http://vintage-erotica-forum.com/sho...light=virginia (#3 by bigfatbob) I successfully joined each part with hjsplit and thought I'd have a go at putting the two halves of the film together. I renamed them from Virginia_upg_cd1.avi and Virginia_upg_cd2.avi to Virginia_upg_complete.avi.001 and Virginia_upg_complete.avi.002 Hjsplit appeared to join them successfully - the original file were 699Mb and 700Mb respectively and the new file is 1.36Gb. However every player I've tried it in only shows the first half (about 45mins). Have I got the renaming concept wrong or do I need to use a completely different programme to put the two halves together? (And if so is there a good freeware option?) |
The two AVIs (cd1.avi and cd2.avi) are not separate parts of one video. They are two individual videos.

I guess Windows Movie Maker would splice them together. |

Can I offer a bit of advice on joining split files for Linux and Mac users?
It's actually very easy, no special software required provided you don't mind using a bit of command-line magic. Everything you need is built in. Let's say you have three files in your Downloads folder that need to be joined, mystuff.rar.001, mystuff.rar.002 and mystuff.rar.003. Open a terminal, and in it type: Code:
cd ~/DownloadsCode:
cat mystuff.rar.001 mystuff.rar.002 mystuff.rar.003 > mystuff.rarCode:
cat mystuff.rar.* > mystuff.rarNote that on a Mac, for Safari users at least, the usual download location is the Desktop - so as the first step above, you would do: Code:
cd ~/Desktop |
7zip treats these .001 files just like a spanned .rar file, joining them automatically as they're unpacked. No need for any extra joining software and it's nice, clean freeware. I've never had a problem with it. Don't know why no one ever seems to mention it.
To find 7zip, just do a search on your engine of choice. Hope this helps. |
As an afterthought to my previous post, I also find that 7zip unpacks .rar files with fewer problems than Winrar.

Mac OSX 10.4 HJ Split
Have downloaded avi.001/2/3 files from megaupload, which all say "This file cannot be opened. This is not a movie file" when I click on them directly on my desktop. The info on the download said join with HJ Split but cannot find an HJ Split connector/opener to sort them out. Any suggestions gratefully received! Using Mac OSX 10.4

Many thanks Debseddy - used "Split & Concat" and got them to work.

I have run into some trouble extracting the following files:
Code:
smwp4(0).001Hoping a jzip user sees this post and is willing to help. Thanks! :) |
have you tried HJSplit with the "join" option first and then jzip (i guess it will also work with unrar) to extract the file you've gained after using HJSplit?
it's been said you need to do both to create the moviefile. |

Not to mention the fact that jzip installs a FF hijack that takes over the home page :( VEF member chupachups helped me solve this unpacking issue. |

I thought it would be best to post this question here, rather than in the movie's thread.
I am having trouble joining the following files, in order to make a complete movie: Code:
