True, with mp3, the first PTS is always 0, and after skipping it will be some positive value, and start_time is set to the skip duration. Is this the same here? Also, what the mp3 demuxer does is not necessarily correct. And also, what works for audio-only formats isn't necessarily right for if there are video tracks involved. What I'm really worried about is what utils.c will determine as total stream start time? From your added tests it looks like mov.c does now what I'd expect, though. I just want to be sure this mess doesn't become worse. Last but not least, why do we have about 3 mechanisms to signal pre-skip? (Skip side data, skip_samples field, and delay field.) _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel
