The video streams are OK - I'm able to play them fine and output a still
image for each and every frame as long as I start at the beginning and
decode going forward.

I have various videos that are VBR and don't have an accurate
duration
or frame rate.
I wrote some code to index the files by reading through the whole
thing
by packet and recording the pts, byte offset, and duration for each
frame, and recording which ones are I-frames. This also allows
getting
an accurate duration for the files that didn't have one too.
Now I'm attempting to use the index to jump to any arbitrary
frame, by
first seeking to the byte offset of the I-frame before the desired
frame, and then decoding packets until the desired number of
non-I-frames are processed.
I've tried this both using the byte offset and with the pts of that
reference I-frame, but in many cases I'm getting repeating "loops" in
the video.
This is probably my misunderstanding of what the fields in the
AVFrame
are. While building the index, I'm using a loop of av_read_frame()
and
avcodec_decode_video2(). When I get a picture, and if key_frame is
set,
I record the frame's pkt_pos, pts, and pkt_dts values in a dictionary
keyed by the frame number.
When I seek to an arbitrary frame, I look up the first entry in the
dictionary with the frame # I'm looking for, and then to:
av_seek_frame(context, video_stream_index,
pkt_pos_for_nearest_iframe,
AVSEEK_FLAG_BACKWARD | AVSEEK_FLAG_BYTES);
Then if the frame I'm looking for is not an I-frame, I repeat the
av_frame_read/avcodec_decode_video2 loop until I get to that frame
number.
Does anyone have any experience with this kind of thing who could
tell
me what I'm doing wrong?

Check the video stream first? Sometimes the video stream were already
broken so the codec cannot decode the stream.
Or you also can use other codec(such as libx264 or libx265). And check
the others codec output.
