You can not seek and start decoding without key frames. Hi Paul, I cannot say that I fully understood your comment. In my input file key frames are 0 and then 250 then 431. FFMpeg seeks ok to frame 48, frame 96, frame 144, frame 192, frame 240. Then when I am asking to seek to frame 288 and FFMpeg seeks to frame 538. Sane behavior in my understanding would be to locate the closest key frame happening before the requested frame and decode frames from there. And it is claimed that the fast seek should be accurate. And for this case I can't make sense of what is happening. and there is the second issue with the gap.... > >> Thanks, >> Alexander >> ////////////// >> _______________________________________________ >> ffmpeg-user mailing list >> [email protected] >> https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-user >> To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email >> [email protected] with subject "unsubscribe". -- Best regards, Alexander Solonsky _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-user mailing list [email protected] https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-user To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email [email protected] with subject "unsubscribe".
