Hi, I'm just started with this all new and impressive feature - RAW recording. I own 5d Mark II. Tried yesterday some shooting and now I have 14 .RAW files. Joined them through a copy/b command, got one file (11.67 GB), but RAw2dng extract just the frames from the file 001, but not all the dngs from all joined .RAW files. Is this possible? Because I obviously want to import All the frames in ONE sequence. Now I thought I could extract those .RAW files to different folders, then batch rename so that I have continuous dng file numbering (i.e, from 00001 till 015000). But having to extract one joined file would be very nice, much less work to do.
Also I must admit, all my .RAW files are smaller than the 4 GB limit.

Step 1 EXTRACTING THE DNG FRAMES
The RAW video files cannot currently be processed directly by any video editor. Each RAW file encapsulates the frames in DNG format so we need to extract these frames first:
1.1 Please download the RAw2dng.exe application for windows.
HERE: https://bitbucket.org/hudson/magic-lantern/downloads
Instructions: In Windows just drag and drop the RAW video files to this exe and it will extract the dng frames in the directory where the RAw2dng.exe file is located.
If your card is formatted inside the camera, it will have FAT32 format in which case the RAW files will be split in 4GB chunks. You will need to join them in the following manner before you process them with Raw2dng.exe
1. Rename the files as file1.raw file2.raw .. etc
Use command line:
copy/b file1.raw+file2.raw+.... filenew.raw
or ..
1a. Rename files as file.001, file.002
Download file joiner splitter such as FFSJ v 3.3
