hi mate, try this combine-clips

https://github.com/NapoleonWils0n/ffmpeg-scripts?tab=readme-ov-file#combine-clips

https://github.com/NapoleonWils0n/ffmpeg-scripts/blob/master/combine-clips

https://github.com/NapoleonWils0n/ffmpeg-scripts

also the video shouldnt be in a mp4 container which is for video
aac audio should be a file with a .m4a or .aac file extension
