A more manual method that might work for you if there are only a few clips you need, and you don't need accuracy to the frame. Play the video in mplayer. At the start of the clip, press P to show the time and record it. At the end of the clip, press P to show the time and record it. Then run ffmpeg as follows, replacing with proper file name and times. The time for ss is the start time you recorded above. The time for t is the duration of the clip, the difference in the two times you recorded. ffmpeg -ss "00:01:23" -i name_of_video_file_in -codec copy -t "00:01:00" name_of_clip_file_out You might have to tweak the start and duration to get it right. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
