Sorry for the spam, but i'm trying to help solve this problem...
I debugged editcap.c in gdb and found that it computers starttime and stoptime to the following:
1: starttime = 1141283520
3: stoptime = 1141282020
therefore, your "if (starttime > stoptime)" is true ... so its computing starttime and stoptime incorrectly
timecode for starttime was:
2: timecode = {tm_sec = 0, tm_min = 12, tm_hour = 2, tm_mday = 2, tm_mon = 2,tm_year = 106, tm_wday = 4, tm_yday = 60, tm_isdst = 0, tm_gmtoff = -18000,tm_zone = 0x804d230 "EST"}
timecode for stoptime was:
4: timecode = {tm_sec = 0, tm_min = 47, tm_hour = 2, tm_mday = 2, tm_mon = 2,tm_year = 106, tm_wday = 4, tm_yday = 60, tm_isdst = 1, tm_gmtoff = -1209507840,tm_zone = 0x0}
For some reason stoptime does not pick up a timezone which could make the difference... i really am not sure how the times are formed from the format, but i'll keep digging
