I agree with Nicolas: the change of the DTS value is a consequence of changing
the PTS value, as the second is correlated with the first. It doesn't have sense
to change only one (at least, as far as a bitstream filter is concerned).

So my preference is to overcome "TS" in the name of this filter.

In any case, I prefer to listening more comments from others: "timeshift",
"pts_offest" or "editpts"?

Regards.
