Team,

I have been using PS for over a decade but am uising Lightroom Classic for a couple of days. I need to take my 30 .mov files and make one file.  I have imported but when I export the entire set, I get a mp4 for each file. I want one. what am I missing?

I don't think Lightroom Classic can do that. In theory it might work if you added those 30 movies to a slide show and exported that slide show as a movie, but in practise I don't think this will work either.

Thanks Johan.  To be honest, I am stunned that it won't.  I shot the movies with my Z8 and was using the .mov format which is H265. For some reason my PS does not like importing the .mov; have tried everything. So I switched to LR Classic which of course will import them but will not now make a full movie 🙂   So, I will take the mp4s that LR created and import them into PS and let it make the movie. This is crazy 🙂    Thanks again.

Lightroom Classic is a photo editor. It has some very basic video editing capabilities as well, but you need a real video editor to do this.
