Description
Hello,
i'm trying to cut an Adobe postprocessed F4v video (h.264 + mp3) with this command :
ffmpeg -ss 00:10:00 -t 10 -i c:\video.f4v -vcodec copy -acodec copy -f flv -async 1 videoout.f4v
but the output file duration is inaccurate;in my case 12 second and not 10 second .
If i try to insert an odd number in -ss (for example -ss 00:10:00) i have this issue while an even number the duration is correct.
Can you help me to resolve this issue ?
Is the command above right?
I tried to download last ffmpeg version and compile one version too but with the same results,
Thanks a lot in advance
Best regards

Please provide a sample.
Does it work if you move "-ss 00:20:13" behind "-i tagliato.f4v"?
comment:5 by , 13 years ago
Yes,i tried but Result don't change,in fact I see that if i use -f flv, the duration is inaccurate so
i searched another solution and i found ffmbc command line that use the same ffmpg syntax.
In the codecs archive i found f4v (ffmbc -codecs |grep f4v , while in ffmpeg this format doesn't exist) and cropped f4v works perfectly with correct duration.
the question is :'why ffmpeg doesn't work?'i think that perheaps depend by libav library.
If you find a solution please tell me.
Thanks a lot for your support.

My suggestion was not helpful, -vcodec copy does not work well with -ss after -i, sorry.
Reproducible with the sample from ticket #578 (and probably many others):
$ ffmpeg -ss 11 -t 9 -i fails_open_cut.f4v -acodec copy -vcodec copy out.mov

comment:8 by , 9 years ago
I have a similar issue, I don't know if they are same bug:
I want to strip only audio from a video file, so I issued
ffmpeg -report -y -ss '00:05:52.5' -t '30.1' -i '犯罪心理.Criminal.Minds.S11E01.中英字幕.HDTVrip.1024X576.mp4' -vn -c:a copy 'CriminalMinds-start.m4a'
The expected duration of output audio file is 30.1 seconds, but the real duration of output file is 06:22.60
size= 6058kB time=00:06:22.60 bitrate= 129.7kbits/s
It looks like the actual duration of output file is ${start position in time lengty}(-ss) + ${duration}(-t)
A workaround (thanks Fyr in #ffmpeg IRC channel) is: put the -t <duration> options after -i <input-file> options. that is: make -t <duration> option an OUTPUT OPTION.
ffmpeg -report -y -ss '00:05:52.5' -i '犯罪心理.Criminal.Minds.S11E01.中英字幕.HDTVrip.1024X576.mp4' -t '30.1' -vn -c:a copy 'CriminalMinds-start.m4a'

If I use "-ss", "-t" and "-c copy", the duration is reduced, but not the
reported duration. This happens with "-ss -t -i", "-ss -i -t" and "-i -ss -t"

might be related to the placing of key frames, h.264 streams are only cut-able at key frames,..
