Could be considered a regression because -t used to be an output option that was also accepted if specified in front of the input file until 6d77279e

Interesting, I would have expected it to be either ~00:01:00 (as requested, "-t 60"), or 00:02:30 (180 seconds minus "-ss 30"), if "-t" was being ignored.

BTW, I can't reproduce this with current git master HEAD. When was this fixed (if ever), with which commit?
