Hi Guys
I'm having a hard time getting my head around encoding variable frame rate
containers in LibAV. I have taken the 'output_example.c' program and
modified it to encode to FLV. What I would like to know is how I would
modify the 'output_example.c' program to write variable time stamp values
into the output file. For my project I will be taking a streaming input
source (which will not have time-stamp information) and will need to create
my own timestamp values (I guess from the delta value between the last
received frame and the current frame?).
I have read that you need to set the time base value to:
c->time_base.num=1;
c->time_base.den=1000;
But I am not sure exactly what I should be setting the encoded packet's PTS
values to?
This means "each pts value has a fractional unit of 1/1000th", or in
other words, millisecond precision. So if your timestamps are 10ms,
22ms, 38ms, then pts would be 10, 22 and 38.

Wow! That was quick - thanks!
So after encoding the frame and calculating what the pts value should be
(based on the delay between the last frame and this one) I would do:
pkt.stream_index= st->index;
pkt.data= video_outbuf;
pkt.size= out_size;
pkt.pts= previousPacketPts + deltaDelay;
/* write the compressed frame in the media file */
ret = av_write_frame(oc, &pkt);
If that makes any sense?
Thanks for the quick response,
Mark.
