Because they're mpeg video files I could cat them all together with no video processing. This was all on linux. Post here if you have questions about how I did this so you can do it too!

i am assuming its not portable to windows. the other thread on NBC olympics, seems to be having trouble as well. i so far have never been able to successfully download the LONG 3Hr+ preliminaries video of most of the sports.
