You might occasionally find this gives strange effects at the start of the new file. If you switch the options round so -i infile appears before -ss ".." then it stops this happening. I think putting them this way round makes sure it scans the input file from the start so that the first frames of the output file are complete, whereas with them the other way round it just jumps in at the start point which can lead to strange artefacts. Something like that anyway. Colin _______________________________________________ get_iplayer mailing list get_iplayer@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/get_iplayer
