I would like to create an audio clip from a video file using the command line, since this is in a terminal text-only Ubuntu 11.04 server system. I would like to select the starting and finishing time for the clip from the video file, something like:

create_clip video.file -from 00:10:00 -to 01:20:10 -o clip.file

Any suggestions?

See my blog post about that:

$ ffmpeg -i youtubemusicvideo.flv -vn -acodec libvorbis result.ogg

Selecting the start time can be done with option -ss hh:m:ss, and the length of the resulting clip can be configured -aframes 1234. Have a look at the ffmpeg man page for more details.

    If you're happy with Vorbis as the output format, you can use mp3splt afterwards to split the .ogg file at the appropriate points.
