IMO you just have to rely on file authors to pick something sane. Even if you did pick an arbitrary value, it would still be horribly wrong at some time scales. Consider for example a video of some micro-scale process recorded at tens of thousands of fps with real timestamps, and intended to be watched frame-by-frame or with -speed 0.001 or such.
Or a common example for the opposite, a time lapse.... Though you probably wouldn't use real timestamps in that example. - ods15
