Package: ffmpeg
Version: 0.cvs20050313-2sarge1
Severity: wishlist

Several command-line options (at least -ss and -t) take a time period
as their argument.  The time period can be specified as numbers of
hours, minutes and seconds separated by colons, or as a number of
seconds.  In either case there may be a fractional number of seconds.

I have occasionally tried to specify a time period as minutes and
seconds separated by a colon and have been surprised to find that the
first number was interpreted as a number of seconds (not minutes) and
the second number ignored without any warning!  ffmpeg should either
suport this time format or exit with an error if it could not parse
the whole of a time period string.

Ben.
