Description

Summary of the bug: When you ask ffmpeg to cut a subtitle file, any subtitle already active at the start time is ignored and any subtitle active at the end time is allowed to linger for longer than the requested length.

How to reproduce:

$ cat test.srt; echo; echo; ffmpeg -i test.srt -c:s srt -ss 1 -t 9  -y out.srt; echo; echo; cat out.srt 
1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,000
subtitle 1

2
00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:09,000
subtitle 2

3
00:00:09,000 --> 00:59:59,000
subtitle 3

I expected instead to get:

00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:02,000
subtitle 1

00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:08,000

Replying to derobert:

1
00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:02,000

... sorry, that should be "00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,000" there, of course.

It's even worse.
When exporting srt subtitle(s) from mp4 file with mov_text encoded stream(s), the last timed entry of each subtitle has his endtime set to runtime of whole stream.
