[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH v2 5/6] avformat/mux: Peek into the muxing queue for avoid_negative_ts

Wed Jan 19 23:29:39 EET 2022


Peeking into the muxing queue can improve the estimate of
the lowest timestamp needed for avoid_negative_ts in case
the lowest timestamp is in a packet other than the first packet
to be muxed.
This fixes tickets #4536 and #5784 as well as the output from
the matroska-avoid-negative-ts FATE-test.
