You either have over-inflated experience or the horseradish in your part of the world is smaller than around here.

@topspin I do live in a cooler place, and as we all know, things get smaller when cold.

Big [citation needed] on that

On the people doing it part or on the player supporting it part?
I really wouldn't be surprised if VLC "supports" fucked up files like that.

Maybe they're Asian

@topspin Any of it. I would expect any video player to be able to play multiple files glued together if they had the same characteristics (compression format, image size, frame rate etc). Being able to switch formats mid-file seems like it would take too much effort for no reason, because I also don't believe that it's a common thing that has ever been done by anyone.

Yes, it does

The original question was specifically about files that DON'T share these characteristics.
-
@Gąska Right. That's why the next sentence in my post is talking about switching formats, and how I doubt if it's supported or a common use case.

video container formats
But they at least have headers, right? You just can't glue together last byte with the first byte of another? How does seeking work then?
-
@levicki I'd expect commercial movies to be rendered as one large file, one single format. When I (well, my drummer) makes videos for our band, we often use stuff from different sources, with different resolutions and framerates too. And we render them back to one 24-25-30fps Full HD (1080p) file. Technically you're losing information (because between interpolation and recompressing...) but it's saner that way. You're going to color correct and process the various sources anyway.
But I can easily believe that many don't do this, don't get me wrong.

@levicki said in Microsoft debuts Bosque – a yet another pointless programming language:
Did you ever watch a movie which has TV footage interspersed? As in, part is progressive (film frame rate), and part needs 3:2 pulldown (a.k.a. inverse telecine) and has a TV framerate? There are commercial movies which are distributed like that.
I've seen movies, and and in every commercial movie I've seen, everything is consistent. Even in movies that are filmed in multiple aspect ratios (one of the Dark Knight movies, IIRC) the final blu-ray/dvd/digital file has just one resolution and framerate throughout.
-
Yeah, commercial stuff don't use that kind of tricks, because you don't want the risk of creating playback problems that make customers angry. (Unless you work on GoT and think blaming customer equipment is fine ).
Sources with different formats are converted before the final rendering.The only discrepancy I've seen sometimes on SDTV video is mixing pseudo-25p/30p and true 50i/60i footage. But it's not that common, especially now that interlacing is obsolete (thank God).

worse then saving XML encoded as base64 Json object in a SQLite database file which is then saved as a BLOB in PostgreSQL
You forgot to say that the XML document contains a uuencoded Word DOCX file that holds a photo of a printed piece of email (placed on a wooden table).
That's enterprisey!

IIRC the OGG format used to list this as one of its features, i.e., that you can just take two OGG files and slap them together, one after the other. I don't remember if the meta-data included anything that would let you determine the size of one "stream", so that you could quickly figure out if your input was multiple concatenated streams or not. If yes, then seeking seems mostly like a PITA to implement, but not technically difficult. If no, then it's going to be a bit extra painful, I guess.
I also have heard of people dumping screen capture videos by writing self-contained single-frame MPEG "videos" (I think) into a file. Apparently not all players/encoders handle it well (i.e., crash), but I've also heard it mentioned that it's supposed to be within the standard.
