[Libav-user] muxing h264/aac stream

[Nisar Ahmed]

Coming back to this issue, I have tested 2 scenarios

a. I am simply setting pts to the timestamp received from encoder and dts
to 0 but the resulting file is showing very large frame rate value.

b. Setting pts to the timestamp received from encoder but this time setting
dts with an increment of 1001 starting from -1001 (2002/-1001, 0/0,
1001/1001, 5005/2002, 3003/3003). The framerate is correct this time but
the quicktime player displays a white frame at the start of the movie. I
investigated this issue further by using libav demuxer sample and the
pts/dts have been changed from what I set and start_time is also not 0. VLC
plays fine but I also want Quicktime player to play the file normally as
well.

The movies created by the software which ships with he encoder shows
correct frame rate and start time of 0, also the pts/dts investigated with
the demuxing sample are in the same sequence as described in the second
scenario.

I really need to understand why my pts/dts are changed by the muxer to
different values, may be it is trying to guess correct values based on the
inputs I provided. Which inputs matter in this kind of scenarios and how
they relate to each other?

Thanks in advance
Nisar
