For general-purpose tools, try split (to separate the file) and cat (to
recreate it from its pieces).

Specific multimedia formats may have their own tools capable of dealing
with the the actual media rather than the file container, which may suit
your needs a bit more closely. Not sure...

Hope that helps.
