Hi
I use the latest ffmpeg (2.4.1) libs and the ffvp9 decoder.
I get decoded frames with strange PTS values as follows:
PTS: 0.000PTS: 0.001PTS: 0.083PTS: 0.125PTS: 0.167PTS: 0.209PTS: 0.250PTS: 0.036PTS: 0.078PTS: 0.119PTS: 0.161PTS: 0.203PTS: 0.245PTS: 0.030PTS: 0.072PTS: 0.114PTS: 0.155PTS: 0.197PTS: 0.239PTS: 0.024PTS: 0.066PTS: 0.108PTS: 0.150PTS: 0.191PTS: 0.233PTS: 0.019PTS: 0.020PTS: 0.102PTS: 0.144PTS: 0.186PTS: 0.227PTS: 0.013PTS: 0.055PTS: 0.096PTS: 0.138PTS: 0.180PTS: 0.222PTS: 0.223PTS: 0.049PTS: 0.091PTS: 0.132PTS: 0.174PTS: 0.216PTS: 0.001PTS: 0.043PTS: 0.085PTS: 0.127PTS: 0.168PTS: 0.210PTS: 0.252PTS: 0.037
Note values are in seconds.
Note, I get frames with PTS 0.001 and 0.002. That is only a one millisecond apart!
Same video in vp8 using ffvp8 generates frames with PTS values as follows:
PTS: 0.000PTS: 0.042PTS: 0.083PTS: 0.125PTS: 0.167PTS: 0.209PTS: 0.250PTS: 0.292PTS: 0.334PTS: 0.375PTS: 0.417PTS: 0.459PTS: 0.501PTS: 0.542PTS: 0.584PTS: 0.626PTS: 0.667PTS: 0.709PTS: 0.751PTS: 0.792PTS: 0.834PTS: 0.876PTS: 0.918PTS: 0.959PTS: 1.001PTS: 1.043PTS: 1.084PTS: 1.126PTS: 1.168PTS: 1.210PTS: 1.251PTS: 1.293PTS: 1.335PTS: 1.376PTS: 1.418PTS: 1.460PTS: 1.502PTS: 1.543PTS: 1.585PTS: 1.627PTS: 1.668PTS: 1.710PTS: 1.752PTS: 1.793PTS: 1.835PTS: 1.877PTS: 1.919PTS: 1.960PTS: 2.002PTS: 2.044PTS: 2.085
The same vp9 video plays very well in ffplay.
It looks like something required to be set in my player.
Any ideas? 
Thanks in advance.
Best regardsSagara
