> Subject: [PATCH] examples/transcoding: Fix time_base handling
> 
> The `dec_ctx->time_base` was incorrectly default set to 0/60, while `enc_ctx->time_base` was derived from `dec_ctx->framerate`. This mismatch could cause incorrect video duration in the output.
> 
> This patch aligns `enc_ctx->time_base` with `dec_ctx->time_base` to prevent rescaling issues and ensure correct video duration.

AVCodecContext.time_base is not used for decoding.
