Unofficial VirtualDub Support Forums > Codec Discussion > Can I Save A Part Of An Mkv Without Recompression


Posted by: MhXDigital Sep 21 2011, 10:20 AM
Hi guys,
I've started using the external encoders feature a few months ago and I'm really happy with it. I'm just wondering, is it possible to save a small part of an MKV video without recompression ? I need this to make samples of my videos.

I've heared that ffmpeg can do it through the command argument -vcopy or something like that, but I don't know how to set it.

Any help will be appreciated, thanks in advance.

CODE
ffmpeg -ss 00:10:00.0 -t 00:00:30.0 -i input_file.mkv -acodec copy -vcodec copy output_file.mkv


-ss - start
-t - duration
