This is false alarm. To see if the file can be really cut precisely, please
add and remove the file twice.

-
The -rkf option may not work in all cases. In particular -rkf works only with
following video compression formats: MP43, MP42 and WMV3. Still it is not
quarantied that those formats will be processed correctly. This is connected
with the need of decoding and encoding video frames, which is
done using VCM drivers. It may happen that the driver used by AsfBin will not
be 100% compatible with the codec used during creation of a given ASF file, what
may cause the image to be scrabled or just black.
Please check the output file(s) for a correct results. It is sufficient to check
only first few seconds of the resulting file and segment junctions.
It looks like not possible to fix.

Some ASF files seems to be of the same format, however in fact
they are created using different encoding software. In such a case
the video can go scrambled after crossing the junction.
So far AsfBin is unable to compare the type of compression so precisely
to avoid joining such files together.
It looks like not possible to fix.
Bugs reporting:
Before reporting a bug please read attached Readme.txt and check whether
a command you typed is valid. Also check if the bug you found isn't already
listed on the Known bugs List above.
Then if You are REALLY sure that something is wrong, please add a -debug switch
and redirect the output to some text file. Then, please, attach this file together with the bug
description sent in e-mail to me.
Without that log file it will be almost impossible to correct a bug.
How to create a log file in command line version:
A command causing an error:
asfbin -i some.asf -o test.asf -start 2:00 -dur 120
Then change that command into:
asfbin -i some.asf -o test.asf -start 2:00 -dur 120 -debug > log.txt
Logs will be stored in the log.txt file.
How to create a log file in windows version:
Start AsfBinWin and select file(s) to process. Click Advanced Settings button.
In the dialog box that will appear check the "Write log file to" option and select
the destination file. Select Details or Debug mode, close the dialog box
and perform actions causing problems. Logs will be stored in the desired location.
I recommend also downloading the debug version of asfbin which can show more
detailed description of the appearing error. It can be downloaded
here.
