Clearly I had been typing something wrong, sorry. I tried it again and yes
it works pretty much straight away.

I certainly never see the video frames jump around in the wrong order and
like I say, the problematic streams I believe are those where at the
encoding process there is no data flowing within the audio stream so one
would not know or care if that track was out of sync.

I understand the need to trace the error in the transcoding part - going to
have to figure that one out myself I guess.
