Cut mkv file

Hey all,Is there a way to cut the first ~1 minute of a .mkv file to a new file with a command line utility? Thanks

You can try this. Install mkvtoolnix-unicode-2.1.0-setup.exe "C:\VidAud\MKVtoolnix\mkvmerge" -o "newfile.mkv" --split-max-files 2 --split 00:01:00 "myfile.mkv"

Thanks for the reply :) It worked like a charm

no container discussions in the avc forum! moved

What if I want to split out 1 minute in the middle of the file? Splitting with mkvmerge will result in 3 files, but I want some program to generate only the part I want. Any suggestion please?

I don't think there are any current tools which take just the piece you want rather than splitting the whole file, avimuxgui is the same. Anyway with mkvmerge: mkvmerge" -o "filename.mkv" --split timecodes:55:00,01:05:00 "filename.mkv" will split 0-55 mins , 55 mins - 1 hour 5 mins and 1h5m to the end. Just seperate the times with a comma. -001, -002, -003 will be added automatically.

Aaaah. So simple. Thanks.
