Is there more to this? If there is, it's not evident to me.
If there are several B-frames in a row, then adjust your mind to 'see' larger shifts across the multiple B-frames and adjust PTSs & DTSs to match.
Cutting off a leading open GOP: <————open GOP————> <—————closed GOP——————> PTS order [_I_][_B_][_P_][_B_][_I_][_B_][_P_][_B_][_P_][_I_] __/ ___¦___/ ___¦___/ ___¦___/ ___¦___/ __/ / / ¦ / ¦ / ¦ / ¦ / DTS order [_I_][_P_][_B_][_I_][_B_][_P_][_B_][_P_][_B_][_I_] X X X X PTS order [_I_][_B_][_P_][_B_][_P_][_I_] __/ ___¦___/ ___¦___/ __/ / / ¦ / ¦ / DTS order [_I_][_P_][_B_][_P_][_B_][_I_] Cut on PTS, then fix up the 1st DTS & packet SCRs. Or, I don't think it's going to hurt anything to leave this: PTS order [_I_][_B_][_P_][_B_][_P_][_I_] _______/ ___¦___/ ___¦___/ __/ / / ¦ / ¦ / DTS order [_I_] [_P_][_B_][_P_][_B_][_I_] and just fix-up the packet SCRs. ===== Cutting off a leading closed GOP: <—————closed GOP——————> <————open GOP————> PTS order [_I_][_B_][_P_][_B_][_P_][_I_][_B_][_P_][_B_][_I_] __/ ___¦___/ ___¦___/ __/ ___¦___/ ___¦___/ / / ¦ / ¦ / / ¦ / ¦ DTS order [_I_][_P_][_B_][_P_][_B_][_I_][_P_][_B_][_I_][_B_] X X X X X PTS order [_I_][_B_][_P_][_B_][_I_] __/ ___¦___/ ___¦___/ / / ¦ / ¦ DTS order [_I_][_P_][_B_][_I_][_B_] Just cut it and fix-up the packet SCRs. ===== Cutting off a trailing GOP from a closed GOP: <—————closed GOP——————> PTS order [_I_][_B_][_P_][_B_][_P_][_I_].. __/ ___¦___/ ___¦___/ / / ¦ / ¦ DTS order [_I_][_P_][_B_][_P_][_B_] Just cut at the end of the closed GOP. ===== Cutting off a trailing GOP from an open GOP: <————open GOP————> PTS order [_I_][_B_][_P_][_B_][_I_].. __/ ___¦___/ ___¦___/ / / ¦ / ¦ DTS order [_I_][_P_][_B_][_I_][_B_] PTS order [_I_][_B_][_P_][_B_][_I_] __/ ___¦___/ ___¦___/ / / ¦ / ¦ DTS order [_I_][_P_][_B_][_I_][_B_] Cut retaining an ending I-frame, only. Honestly, I don't know why the MPEG folks don't supply illustrations instead of their torturous text. This isn't magic, it's Legos. _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-user mailing list ffmpeg-user@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-user To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-user-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
