Comment (by Cigaes):

 ffmpeg seeks backward by default, which means that if it can not seek
 exactly to 00:02:47, it will seek to 00:02:45 rather than to 00:02:50. So
 I believe what you want can simply be achieved using:
 {{{
 ffmpeg -ss time -i input -ss 0 output
 }}}
 OTOH, this does not seem to be frame-accurate, there seems to be a very
 small difference. Strangely, it does not appear on the showinfo filter.
