Try this instead:

mencoder movie.avi \
  -ss START_SECONDS \
  -endpos END_SECONDS_MINUS_START_SECONDS \
  -ovc copy -oac copy -o bob.avi

START_SECONDS is where you want your movie to start in seconds (not frames)
              pass this value to -ss

END_SECONDS   is where you want your movie to _end_ in seconds (not frames)
              _do_not_ pass this value to -endpos

END_SECONDS_MINUS_START_SECONDS is the result of END_SECONDS - START_SECONDS
                                pass _this_ value to -endpos
                                

Gurus: I know that -ss and -endpos are more complicated, but this
       works fine for me.
