Well, I'm still stumbling around blindly on this. I did find that ProjectX can also be run from the command line. Bizarre as it may sound, I am finding for doing something simple, the command line is far less intimidating.

My goal is to take a .mpg file, and edit it between the key frames. Thus far I have succeeded in using ProjectX to demux a .mpg file. … I'm hoping I can then take that output, together with a line number (for the cut) obtained from lve, and use m2vmp2cut (or avidemux) to cut the mpeg file where I want cut. .. AND keep audio synch. (As a note - I tried avidemux first on the original mpeg, but the file I am using has also given AVIDEMUX problems (with audio synch)).

At this point in time, that appears to be a rather "lofty" goal, and I'm not all that confident that I will succeed. Has anyone else tried and succeeded at this?

Well, it turns out I was too pessimistic. With ProjectX, from an input .mpg file, I generated an output .m2v and .mp2 files. I used these two ProjectX files as an input to Avidemux. I was then able to edit/remux the audio & video files with avidemux, and this time retain audio/video synchronisation. My edit/cut was successfully made in between two keyframes (where as before, using only avidemux on the original .mpg file gave me an audio/video desync problem). Impressive!
