The concat protocol does not work for avi and mkv 
files.. This is not a limitation of FFmpeg but 
of the containers (concat: is a equivalent of `cat`).

Please read about the concat demuxer and the concat 
filter (I am not sure how well they work for subtitles):
https://ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg-formats.html#concat-1
https://ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg-filters.html#concat

For future questions: Please always provide the 
command line that you tried without success together 
with the complete, uncut console output: This is 
needed (at least for me) to answer most questions.
