Last time I looked, the edl stuff was totally unusable (inexact, buggy and 
mplayer-only IIRC).  I wrote an external solution which loads Avidemux EDL 
files and feeds only the relevant byte ranges to mencoder: 
http://kogs-www.informatik.uni-hamburg.de/~meine/video#cutting-video

I admit it's a hack since I did not write a full MPEG parser, but focused on 
something which worked well for me(tm), with IVTV-generated MPEGs.

Also, it's a pity that the Avidemux format changed so much lately, which makes 
my above Python module ready for the trash bin. ;-/
