yes, unfortunately cropping is done with block granularity, so the
buffersize setting (-b:sampleframes) defines the possible precision.

The best workaround would be to improve the implementation of "-gc". Other
options are:

  - use "-t:secs" for time-cropping (this is sample accurate)
  - use a smaller block-size (obviously is not good enough solution
    in your case)
