But here ffmpeg will clean up and sort out timestamps provided you have an appropriate version, etc. The snag in my experience is that it depends which version you have and the details of the 'problem' data. That said, using 'copy' may prevent it from checking some of the details of the payload. Here a 'copy' pass generally works, but its not a panacea.
