As soon as an actual working code sample emerges which proves that you can feed varying FPS to the encoder, I’ll be thrilled to implement it in my own code. But I have never come across an example which demonstrates this, nor when I posted source to this list which demonstrated the problem, was any solution given. So until that time, I have to stick with code that works….not the theory, which I’d highly prefer, but unfortunately I cannot seem to realize in an implementation. 

As this is relevant to Pradeep’s original question…Pradeep, if you are able to get this to work, if you can post a code sample to the mailing list, it would be much appreciated. 

Thanks, 

Brad
