When i was developing the windows filters i found that some files have video
timecodes thats realy wierd, they start realy high, then increase for a few
frames, and then reset back to zero and then continue normaly.
I had to develop a workaround for this because windows (actualy directshow)
doesn't like when timecodes jump down, they must always increase.
Note that this problem is only at the begining of the file, the very first
few video frames.
I don't know if this is still a problem or not.
I'm just looking through the xine code at the moment (for other reasons). They seem to have something they call the "metronome" which basically calculates their own timestamps based on all available info, eg the timestamps in the mpeg stream. Specifically this is to deal with timestamps which wrap or go negative, etc. Interesting idea...
