How to Combine GoPro Videos Easily?

GoPro records videos in segments by default. It’s called chaptering. There are two reasons behind this. The first reason is that the memory card GoPro uses is formatted with the FAT32 system, which has a size limit capped at 4 GB for every single file. So when you record footage using high settings, such as high resolution and high frame rate, the file size could easily reach that limit and generate a new video chunk therefore. Another reason is that GoPro wants to protect your data. By chaptering, it will reduce the chance of losing all the footage if the shooting gets interrupted, hence preventing data loss.

You can view the full footage continuously on your GoPro. But when transferred to your computer or other devices, the footage can only be watched in segments. It is also inconvenient if you want to edit the footage. So joining GoPro videos back into one complete file is important.

Some of you might want to use online video joiners to merge GoPro videos. Personally, I do not suggest that because GoPro videos are usually very large. And it could take forever to upload one GoPro video onto the cloud, not to mention some sites don’t even support files that big. Also, many online sites feed on advertising, and that could ruin your user experience if you click on one accidentally. Hence, it is advisable you stick to a desktop video joiner like the one mentioned in this post.
