It should do the following:

video input: AVI, raw MPEG-4 ASP and AVC streams
audio input: (VBR) MP3, AC3 (anything else is a bonus)

Output splitting at an arbitrary size

The whole thing should be commandline controllable, be exposed as a DLL, COM or whatnot.

Here's one already that doesn't work: mencoder. It hangs on AC3 files unless you tell it the exact properties of the file (nb channels, sampling rate) - which is not an option, and the AVI files it writes from raw MPEG-4 streams are broken and cannot be opened through VfW or DShow. It also has no useful splitting.

Try ffmpeg... It can do codec passthrough. (not sure if AC3 in AVI is supported though).
