Just a quick user-based suggestion. Because of different applications
of ffdump, please leave an option to choose the time format or report
multiple time formats at once, for example:

--timeformat timestamp (default?)
   Length: 00:23:15.22914

--timeformat sec
   Length: 1395.22914

--timeformat frames
   Length: 34881

--timeformat secframes
   Length: 00:23:15.15

Or all at once:
  Length: 00:23:15.22914 (00:23:15.15, 34881 frames)


A short switch(){} and sprintf() in the code, an invaluable functionality.



Arthur.
