Well I'd love to get this fixed, and I would not mind such hack after
all, but the problems I see here are:

- This is valid if only 1 edit list element is present, so this would
need to be checked.
- The time value refers to the pts not the dts according to specs,
typically this value is 1 for there is delay (first pts is 1 and first
dts is 0)
