yes. -ofps is on my future TODO list for long time, but it's not trivial at
all to implement, needs deeper changes. (introducing new time counters, as
in the curret code video is synced to audio but you want time-based sync).

redisplaying frames in pause mode is impossible, search the archive for
details. hint: direct rendering / slice rendering.
(the whole decoded video image is not stored in the memory - compare it to
old VCR's pause mode, they couldn't just pause a frame, they looped a short
few frame sequence instead. some new ones has digital framebuffer and they
capture/display image from that, in lower quality...)

hard enough to not to start today.
