Cut a clip from a flash flv file on linux

I’ve spent sometime trying to cut a flv flash video file on my kubuntu. I’ve tried with mencoder and ffmpeg without success, having problems with audio syncronization and things like that.

I just did an apt-cache search flv on my kubuntu and I’ve found the answer to my problem: flvtool2

It’s very easy to use for my goals: I just one to cut a piece of a flv file from minute 19 to minute 20. I needed to convert minutes to miliseconds as needed by the program, but that’s as easy as multiply by 60000, so this is the command line that I used:

flvtool2 -C -i 1140000 -o 1200000 input.flv output.flv

It works very well. :-)
