[Libav-user] Reuse of format context after free and reallocate?

 I did some digging and found the error is coming from this code in flvenv.c line 921.

  if (pkt->dts < -flv->delay) {
        av_log(s, AV_LOG_WARNING,
               "Packets are not in the proper order with respect to DTS\n");
        return AVERROR(EINVAL);

flv is a pointer to  FLVContext from AVFormatContext->priv_data.

Looks like the avformat_write_header()/avformat_init_output uses the state of the muxer at the last run even if the AVFormatContext has been freed and reallocated.
So how do I get the FLVContext to be initlized as if a fresh run. Or how do I free the old FLVContext so when avformat_write_header() initlizes the priv_data it is fresh.

I have a program the creates flash format stream and is work the first time thru but when I process the second stream, I get DTS/PTS non monotonically errors.

After each stream I free and reallocate all contexts:

avcodec_free_context() of all streams video and audio

avformat_free_context()

avio_close()



What am I missing so the format context can be reallocate and used?



Thanks William
