Stephen,
I see your point. There's no problem in describing a working way, but
probably the main misleading issue with the section is that it still hints
that there's no current "official" way to get the current time time stamp
while even in the ffmplay.c (mentioned by you) the code already uses the
function I mentioned (av_frame_get_best_effort_timestamp).
...
static int get_video_frame(VideoState *is, AVFrame *frame, AVPacket *pkt,
int *serial)
...
if (decoder_reorder_pts == -1) {
frame->pts = av_frame_get_best_effort_timestamp(frame);
} else if (decoder_reorder_pts) {
frame->pts = frame->pkt_pts;
} else {
frame->pts = frame->pkt_dts;
}
Probably you need time to rework (vs update) the tutorial. Just my two
cents for your possible future activity :)
