title: Making Edits With select()

See [this stackoverflow](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/50594412/cut-multiple-parts-of-a-video-with-ffmpeg).

Summary:
```bash
ffmpeg -i video \
       -vf "select='between(t,4,6.5)+between(t,17,26)+between(t,74,91)',
            setpts=N/FRAME_RATE/TB" \
       -af "aselect='between(t,4,6.5)+between(t,17,26)+between(t,74,91)',
            asetpts=N/SR/TB" out.mp4
```

Naturally one could use a Python script to generate the `-vf` and `-af` strings, so as to
ensure they clip the same part of the video.
