[Ffmpeg-devel] Last frame always ignored by FFMPEG

[John Fremlin]

I was using libavcodec/libavformat to decode some DV AVI streams. I
notices that the frame count decoded is always one less than that in
the stream itself. In fact, I have determined that the last frame is
not decoded.

I thought I was incorrectly sending packets for decode or something
like that, but the same problem occurs using the ffmpeg command line
tool on any avi file I tried (not just DV but also XViD etc.). The
last frame will not be included in the output.

Any suggestions?
