[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] avformat/flvenc: copyts in FLV muxer

[Ivan]

The purpose of this patch is to preserve timestamps when using ffmpeg for publishing RTMP streams, e.g. ffmpeg -i rtmp://source/stream -f flv rtmp://target/stream.
There is a setting "copyts" for that purpose. Unfortunately it doesn't work with FLV muxer because it has its own timestamp correction which makes global setting "copyts" ineffective.

This patch removes timestamp correction in FLV muxer. This means FLV will rely on ffmpeg timestamp correction which makes it possible to use copyts.
