How do I find the exact time?

Play the video and pause where the part should start, then press Start = now. Do the same at the end with End = now. The keys I and O do the same when no text box is focused.

What happens if I type a time past the end?

The time snaps to the end of the video and the page tells you. If the end is before the start, the end moves to one second after the start, because a clip is at least one second long. A value that isn't a time, such as 1:75, is marked and the last good value stays.

Why does my clip start a little early?

Clips from direct files are cut without re-encoding, so a cut lands on the nearest keyframe and can start up to a few seconds before the time you typed. Trimming without re-encoding explains why.
