Problem with --start-time trying to split a video

[go.17]

I'm trying to save from the command line the central part of a .mp4 video.
I'm using VLC 1.1.9 on Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit.

The command I am using is

Code: Select all

vlc -I dummy -vvv --start-time 245 --stop-time 3455 in.mp4 --sout=#file{dst="out.mp4"} vlc://quit

When I play the out.mp4 file its first second is equal to the first second of the original file i.e. a very ugly banner that only deserves to be deleted

Am I doing something wrong?
Is there another way to get what I need?
Is it a bug?

Thanks, go.17

yes, I think it's the same issue I had with the start time option. I proposed a patch :
