Cutting video with VLC

[nour]

hi there,

I use the following command to cut a mpg file:
vlc my.mpg --start-time 580 --stop-time 660 :sout=#transcode{}:file{dst=d:\tvmonitor\mynew.mpg} vlc://quit

it is working fine just one problem the mynew.mpg file start with the fisrt 2 sec with from the start of the orginal file.

I think the problem is that time that cost vlc to load the orginal file.

my question how can i instruct vlc to:

1. load the file first

2 jump to postion 580

3 start playing/transcoding

Please your reply

This should cut, starting at 580 seconds and ending at 660 seconds:

Code: Select all

vlc my.mpg --start-time 580 --stop-time 660 --sout-keep --sout=#file{dst=d:\tvmonitor\mynew.mpg} vlc://quit
