Only you can look at (analyze) the input stream
and compare the frame count with the output file
to see if frames are dropped.
The way I understand the warning (I did not check
the actual commit) is that frames may be lost.

Any idea _why_ they might be dropped? I don't think it is a UDP transport issue, or I would be seeing timing oddities. It would not appear to be a processor or memory issue either, since neither is used nearly to capacity while this is going on. Again, I'm reading separate audio and video streams (AAC, H.264), and mixing them into a segmented mpegts output.

It seems to be a systematic process, dropping about 1 frame every minute or so, at least according to the errors. Over two hours, it does not seem to have a pronounced effect on the resulting stream, but over 4-6 hours it might.

If I can figure out why it's happening, maybe there is a buffer size or the like I can manipulate to avoid the problem.

I believe it's coming from mov.c, in function mov_skip_multiple_stsd, line 1638. But I still haven't figured out what's going on in there.
