I have been defeated by ffmpeg. I cannot find a way to remove the first n seconds of a video without re-encoding the entire video and without losing any video.

It feels like it should be possible to just re-encode the dangling portion of time between keyframes...

At this point I'm thinking the best thing for everyone would be for me to quit software engineering and become an artisinal cheese maker.

@pganssle btw, haven't checked to see whether it would solve your immediate problem, but you know of amiaopensource.github.io/ffmpr ?

@brainwane Ah, this seems really useful.

Too bad I just bought 300 pounds of rennet...
