this should be considered a bug and reported as such to the FFmpeg group (preferably with a patch to make it use clock_gettime() if available). gettimeofday is a non-linear, non-mononotic clock if ntp is used. it is not suitable for timestamping in this way. without ntp, it will work better, but it is still subject to potential non-monotonicity. --p _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-dev
