Hello,

I have a working implementation of clip playback with ffmpeg, but I am finding some problems with looping. The documentation states that avcodec_flush_buffers should be called when seeking, but I was wondering if that was strictly necessary for loops. Not flushig on loops leads the program to output all the images, provided that I add a dumy packet at the end of the last loop for some clips. However, the reported DTS and PTS are not what I would expect (ie. decoding the firts packet after looping brings me the last image of the previous iteration, but PTS and DTS of the new packet).

My question is if the way to go would be to flush always, at the end of the loop, adding any dummy packets if needed. Note that loop does not need to be full clip lenth, it is arbitrary (in case that makes a difference).

Thanks!
