    @JikkuJose: Omit the -t/-to and its argument to continue to the end. Commented Feb 21, 2015 at 18:39

    Note: it is faster to supply -ss BEFORE the input file (before -i), because that way ffmpeg will skip directly to the location. However, that will also set the time "zero" to that location, meaning that -to will point to the wrong time. Source: trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/Seeking Commented Jul 30, 2015 at 19:41
