If you want to cut off the end of the file you can use the -t as in time
option of ffmpeg

ffmpeg -i myfile -t 300 out.mp4 That would take 300 seconds of the
original file.

So, if you had a 7 minute file but the last 2 minutes were bad that -t 300
would save the first five minutes into a good file.
