Re: Truncating MPGs or MP4s

project-x should also be able to do that. Useful info, thanks! Project-x may be a bit more limited than ffmpeg and avidemux though as it doesn't support H.264 (disclaimer on http://project-x.sourceforge.net/).

Re: Truncating MPGs or MP4s

I usually use avidemux for that, telling it to copy the audio and video rather then reencode them. Then I do the transcoding with handbrake. +1 for Avidemux as a GUI tool. To my knowledge it is the only gui tool in linux which allows simple truncation of files without reencoding. Last time
