can someone please tell me how to split a video using mp4box (OSX)?

[mrjayviper]

So I need the split a video. The parts I need stars at around at 5minute mark and ends at around 10 minutes. I've looked at the documentation available from the MP4Box website and I'm not sure if this is possible using mp4box.

Thanks

MP4Box can only split at certain points, as it doesn’t re-encode, and those frames could be far apart with long GOPs. So it depends … If the software doesn’t want to match your desired timeframe, then you will have to use a ‘real’ video editor and re-encode the content.

-splitx StartTime:EndTime : extracts a subfile from the input file. StartTime and EndTime are specified in seconds. Depending on random access distribution in the file (sync samples), the startTime will be adjusted to the previous random access time in the file.
-splitz StartTime:EndTime : extracts a subfile from the input file. StartTime and EndTime are specified in seconds. Depending on random access distribution in the file (sync samples), the startTime will be adjusted to the previous random access time in the file, and the endTime will be adjusted to the last sample before the last RAP in the extracted chunk.

mp4box -add myInputFile.mp4 -splitx 300:600 myOutputFile.mp4

where the start is at 300 seconds (5 minute mark) or a bit less!
