[MEncoder-users] Spit files -ss

[Mike Petersen]

Thanks for the quick reply.
Do you know any programm that can do exact cuts (the endtime is also too
long sometimes), but it has to be a command line tool under linux...
It's sometimes much more than a few seconds if i watch a movie and
select -ss 13:00 it goes to 15:16!! and i think that is way off...

Regards
Mike
