I'm strongly in favor of this, HOWEVER, currently the timestamps at
the encoder level are incorrect unless -vf harddup or -mc 0 -noskip is
used. Is there a way we could at the same time make the encoder
process the "duplicate frame" VF control() call so that it can
compensate and correct the timestamp?
