Jim,
I am in the camp that believes that the measure of adequate FFmpeg documentation is that it describes what an FFmpeg user needs to know about the behaviour of that filter, in all respects, without having to read the source code. By that measure, I believe that FFmpeg's documentation for almost all filters is inadequate.
I absolutely agree to this. But as a non-developer it's hopeless to contribute to the official documentation. A few developers (not all!) are actively fighting against any changes in the documentation. It seems they are really convinced that the documentation is perfect as it is.
The documentation I wrote for the fps filter might be a useful case study: <http://blog.jdlh.com/en/2020/04/30/ffmpeg-fps-documented/ <http://blog.jdlh.com/en/2020/04/30/ffmpeg-fps-documented/>>. (The case study is not limited to PTSs.)
That's very good.
