agree, but it means a big design change of teh whole mplayer/mencoder core,
as it's designed to demuxers provideo whole frames with timestamps, and it's
used then to decide if we drop/skip or decode the frame.

i plan to do it this way (codecs/filters provide timestamps) in mplayer G2,
it would also solve several other problems:
- realvideo codecs provide accurate timestamps, so we could get rid of hacks
in demuxer
- field-coded mpeg2 (50 fields instead of 25 frames)
- frame order for IPB mpeg formats (now it's workaround'ed in video.c)
but it also brings some problems:
- frame order for IPB in avi or other 'dumb' container (can be workaround'ed)
- timestamps not available at streamcopy (or streamcopy requires decoding...)
- framedrop won't be so smooth as it is now for variable fps formats

unless you do -ovc copy ...
