[Libav-user] Framerate of video is not exact

Thu Apr 29 11:35:41 EEST 2021

Hello,

thanks for reply. I just want to mention that the avg_frame_rate is unset
by default. So I had to set it manually in the part of code where the
stream is initialized, like this:
ost->st->timebase = (AVRational) {1, framerate};
ost->st->avg_frame_rate = (AVRational) {framerate,1};
I did this and now it works fine.

Best regards,
Rick
