A simpler case: for a ten-minute video, this will hang: transcode -q 0 -o *.img/png/test -y im -F png -x ffmpeg,null -i *.avi -c 0:10:05-0:10:05.1,0:10:09-0:10:09.1 If there's two or more timecodes beyond the end of the file, it hangs reliably. A single excessive timecode is tolerated. The kdump I submitted may not be that useful, as it's mainly bash information; I can do a trace of the transcode process if needed. Dave
