As CLI and without demuxing I only know of "replex", but that's no option 
under windows (or is there a port? should not be to difficult...)... and 
"ffmpeg" produces very strange output (at least the first few seconds are 
missing.... if not the file is totally corrupted).

Yes, of course... I only make use of the index... actually I changed nothing 
in the code just added a call to savempg in case of no markers (in nogui 
mode!).

Sven told me yesterday that he needed that option and implemented it already, 
i.e. to specify  <expfile=...> in the project file... I just thougt that a 
CLI switch would also be nice, because at the moment one has to call "dvbcut 
-batch" from the position where one wants to have the output file.

Why not, it's the best way when you want to generate a project file by some 
automatism for batch cutting!
