Question

Does any one know how cut portion from video stream based on start and end time ? Using ffmpeg library in iOS.

Why must ffmpeg, I think you can use AVFoundation. If you must use ffmpeg, maybe you can check [this question](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20856803/how-to-cut-video-with-ffmpeg-c-api). — justin, Nov 21 '16 at 03:11

if you dont mind doing it with the application rather than the library:

ffmpeg -i video.mp4 -ss hh:mm:ss -to hh:mm:ss -c copy cut.mp4

eg

ffmpeg -i video.mp4 -ss 00:01:00 -to 00:02:00 -c copy cut.mp4

-c copy tells it to remux rather than transcode but it depends on the codecs you are using whether or not this will work
