I suck at regex, and I'm tired, so I turn to you guys.
Using php, I'm going to exec ffmpeg to spit out the details of a video,
like this:
ffmpeg -i FLIP_2_091128-3.mp4
I want to know the duration of the video. The output of that command is
thus:
FFmpeg version SVN-rUNKNOWN, Copyright (c) 2000-2007 Fabrice Bellard, et
al.

Input #0, mov,mp4,m4a,3gp,3g2,mj2, from 'FLIP_2_091128-3.mp4':
Duration: 00:01:21.5, start: 0.000000, bitrate: 812 kb/s
Stream #0.0(und): Video: h264, yuv420p, 720x480, 29.97 fps(r)
Stream #0.1(und): Audio: aac, 44100 Hz, stereo
Must supply at least one output file
You can see the Duration printed there quite nicely. Which of the php
preg functions would I want to use, and what would I ask of it?
I'm not terribly concerned about the speed of the method. I also really
only want the HH:MM:SS part, not even the fractional seconds.
Ready? GO!
