Please note that the timecodes refer to the unsplit output
stream. Therefore entering '00:10:00,00:20:00' will result in
three files of which the first two will be roughly ten minutes
long. The third piece will contain the rest of the input
stream. This is independant of the 'file linking' feature.<br>

'1800s' (split after 1800 seconds = 30 minutes).</li>
