Chop off the first part of an mpeg2 file

[luders]

Is there a way to do this without re encoding? A sort of direct stream copy. I am just working with a video only mpeg (m2v). Thanks, Aaron

One way is to use M2Edit, it's a commercial product though.

As far as a free solution goes you could try bbmpeg...mux/cut with a dummy audio file and then demux with tmpgenc to get your cut m2v :)
