Hi again!I started this post many months ago. Now I have some questions related again. I have checked mencoder needs to read the idx (frames index) chunk of the avi file before to get the video section of the file. This is necessary to find out the position of the wished video in the file exactly. The problem is that the idx chunk is around 4 MBytes (for a file of 1GB). I need to get several video sections of the same file, but since I launch a different execution of mencoder.exe for each section, I guess the same idx chunk is downloaded every time. My question is: Is there any way to make several operations in a only execution of mencoder using batch or similar ??? If the answer is yes, it's possible that such mechanism was intelligent enough to download de index once. Thank you.
