[Libav-user] Packet containing different content than expected when using DV container

I am pretty sure that this is not the case.
I stored the decoded AVFrame as an image to be absolutely sure and the error could be observed as well.
Meaning that the decoded frame (equals exported image) does not correspond to the pkt_pts it should be.

It also performs well for the QT container format.
I exported the same test video from Final Cut as a 25 fps DV to the DV container and the MOV container.
The QuickTime container works like a charm, the DV container doesn’t.

Best,
