Hi, I took the last 15 minutes from a large Ogg Vorbis audio file using ffmpeg as follows: $ ffmpeg -i ftgws.ogg -ss 01:38:06 -acodec vorbis -aq 60 ursula.ogg Is there an equivalent method using MPlayer? I suspect that there must be but the syntax has eluded me. Andrew -- Do you think that's air you're breathing?
