Yes, of course. The “openRTSP” demo application (a RTSP client) explicitly outputs the ‘presentation time’ for each received frame of data. Just run it. IMHO, you should not be using ‘libav’ or ‘ffmpeg’ to implement RTSP/RTP/RTCP (for either servers or clients). Although these libraries apparently do contain an implementation of these protocols, it is incomplete and buggy (as you have discovered). Instead, I suggest using our “LIVE555 Streaming Media” code - whose RTSP/RTP/RTCP implementation is far more developed. In any case, this mailing list is specifically for discussion of the "LIVE555 Streaming Media” software, so discussion of other libraries’ RTSP/RTP/RTCP implementation is off-topic here.
