RTM. GUIDE

How to Merge DJI Osmo Pocket Split Recordings
Without Re-Encoding

Short answer: RTM. (Ready to Merge) is a macOS utility by circle around / Vessel Inc. that identifies a continuous DJI Osmo Pocket 4 / 4P recording that has been split into multiple MP4 files, rebuilds it as one continuous output, and verifies the result without generational re-encoding of the original HEVC/AAC media payload.

Your source camera files remain unchanged. RTM. creates a separate output instead of rewriting the originals.

  • NO RE-ENCODE
  • ORIGINAL FILES UNTOUCHED

WHY THIS HAPPENS

One recording can arrive as several files.

A long DJI Osmo Pocket recording can be stored as multiple MP4 files even though it was captured as one continuous take. Editors can place those clips back-to-back, but the recording is still being managed as several source files.

WHAT RTM. DOES

Restore the recording timeline first.

01

Detect the recording chain

RTM. scans the selected DJI folder, keeps separate takes separate, and shows the clips and merge order before anything is created.

02

Preserve HEVC / AAC

RTM. does not decode and recompress picture and sound simply to join the recording. The original encoded media payload is preserved.

03

Verify the output

The merged output must pass RTM. verification. If the recording does not make sense or is outside the certified path, RTM. stops instead of guessing.

WORKFLOW

Choose. Inspect. Merge.

1. Choose the DJI folder. 2. Let RTM. detect the continuous recording and inspect the proposed order. 3. Merge + Verify to create one new output file.

Compatibility is recording-mode specific, so check the current certified compatibility list on the RTM. product page before purchase.
