Comment (by TurboLed):

 Replying to [comment:12 Balling]:
 > So s->key_frame = 1; there does not propogate to ffprobe and more
 keyframes are present in the stream?

 I believe s->key_frame = 1 (AVCodecParserContext::key_frame ->
 h264_parse.c) is not what ffprobe displays as key_frame but rather the
 frame decoding (AVFrame::key_frame -> h264dec.c) which is computed
 differently.

 I also noted that -f segment is acting as an output filter; so that when
 re-encoding the video (i.e. without -c copy) the splitting occurs on the
 newly generated keyframes from the output. But when splitting a video, you
 usually don't want to re-encode.
