Need a program to split media files using timecodes

I have quicktimes I need to split up into various segments using timecodes from their master tapes. Capturing each file and making individual quicktimes isn't an option, so I have to dice the main quicktime up.

I have found HEAPS of programs online which we don't mind paying for but it needs to be able to have a timecode option and if possible, a batch split list so an entire quicktime can be logged and split at once.

I did find an AVI splitter which was perfect but it didn't handle quicktimes! Typical. Any help would be appreciated.

Oh and Quicktime Pro is an option but I'm trying to find an alternative.
 
There should be a Quicktime plugin for Virtualdub nowadays, if I remember correctly.
 
If you want cheap, try mencoder

You can use something like

mencoder -ovc copy -oac copy -ss <timecode> -frames <endtime * frames per second> -o part_of_file.avi longfile.mov
