mencoder -oac copy -ovc copy -endpos X -o part1.avi
mencoder -oac copy -ovc copy -startpos X -o part2.avi

please lookup endpos and startpos (I am doing this off the top of my head, so 
check the man page!)

-o(v/a)c copy just copies the streams as they are (might not be exactly the 
frame/time specified, due to the codecs limitations though)
