Bluboo Xfire2 - Worlds First 5-Inch Tri-SIM Phone

I can vividly remember those times when we had phones with three SIMs slots and two memory card spaces. I expect we're passed that era, suprisingly enough,we're not.With this in mind, Bluboo,being one of Chinese based Android phone manufacturer announced today the release of their latest flagship device called Bluboo XFire 2. How is this device any different from other Chinese phones?

The unique feature that drew my attention towards Bluboo Xfire 2 is its implementation of Tri-SIM slot. It's not like we've not seen a tri-SIM device before or even worse, but this company claims that Xfire 2 is the first 5-inch phone to have triple SIM support.Two of which are Nano SIM slots and a single normal SIM slot.

Bluboo X fire2 features a 5-inch HD(1280x720p resolution) with 2.5D arc suspended screen. It is powered by a Mediatek 1.3GHz M6580 SoC processor with Mali 400 GPU.This device also has a dedicated from flash for cute slefies.

Other details such as the RAM,Camera and battery capacity are yet to be revealed but the device is expected to hit store shelves come January 2016,at a price of $69.99.

How To Merge Multiple Clips Using VLC

VLC Media player has a range of function aside being a media player. Amongst this, is the ability to merge multiple video clips into a single file. Most Movie download sites split their movie file into parts which when adding a subtitle file you encounter difficulty.This is a full guide explicitly detailing how to merge clips with VLC through the Command prompt.

How To Merge Multiple Clips Into One File

• The first thing to do is to make sure that the files you wish to merge are in the format. i.e if you have file A and B, then both must be either .mp4 or .avi or whatever format you want e.g A.mp4 and B.mp4
• If clips are in the same format,skip to the next step .If not,You can convert the files using VLC. To convert, open the "Media" menu and pick "Convert/Save." Add one clip, press "Convert/Save" and pick a format from the Profile list. After VLC finishes, convert the second clip.
• Create a new folder and move all clips you wish to merge into it
• 'Shift-Right-Click' on the folder containing the clips and select 'Open command window here' to open the command prompt
• Type in the following command replacing the components in the brackets

"[Location of vlc.exe]" [first_clip.ext] [second_clip.ext] --sout "#gather:std{access=file,dst=[new_name.ext]}" --sout-keep

• For example,if VLC is installed in the default directory, your video files are 0.mp4,1.mp4 and 3.mp4 and you want the video output named 22.mp4. Your command will look like:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLan\VLC\vlc.exe" 0.mp4 1.mp4 2.mp4  --sout
"#gather:std{access=file,dst=22.mp4}" --sout-keep

• Press Enter and wait for VLC to merge the files.
• Once complete, ensure to close the VLC window before playing your file.
