I would like to attempt the AVParser for h.264 as one of the 
qualification tasks but I am afraid I am unfamiliar with how FFMPEG 
parsing works. I fear I may be barking up the wrong tree here so perhaps 
someone can point me in the right direction. I believe 
libavcodec/h264_parser.c is responsible for finding an H.264 frame and 
libavcodec/parser.h is the base for all parsers implemented? If this is 
the case I am not sure where exactly or how the time stamps are being 
set randomly?

Forgive my ignorance and your help is appreciated
