[Ffmpeg-devel] AVI to MPG: Major av sync issue

[Chris]

Hi,

Sample uploaded to: ftp.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/incoming/avi_to_mpeg_sync_issue

I have an avi file which when encoded to mpeg is way out of sync:

using :

ffmpeg -i sample.avi -target dvd -async 50 sample.mpg

Sample file is truncated from a larger file, hence the error at the end.

The issue here is that the sync is way off. I have tried different values
for async with no success.

The encoding starts and the frame count & time increments but the size
remains at zero. Then at about 10secs the size starts going up and
interestingly the time goes down to 6 secs before incrementing normally.

I suspect it is something to do with the JUNK chunks at the beginning....

Chris
