That file uses stts in an unusual way. Before 2015, lavf exported packets with the same desync as the other demuxers do so till today. Andreas' patch added a hack to make it play in sync. My patch 203b0e356 broke that hack. The patch for max_stts_delta is a way to restore it back. > you then suggested a fix which crashed with some fuzzed files which > where outside the specification > > and now this fix on top which changes real world files which > are outside the specification > > I think, maybe you should consider the "outside the specification" > more.

Not surprising that the output of out-of-spec files is different - that's expected, intended and trivial. It would be a bug if in-spec files were treated differently. FATE passes. If there's a specific / "correct" playback for these files like sync issues, I'll see if I can restore it. Regards, Gyan

I certainly will not find every If a patch is writen with the goal "dont break any file" it would be easy But you said that changes are "expected, intended" so then my question as reviewer would be what about these expected changes ? Did it change any real files output? did it fix a bug? What is the idea behind the change ? please correct me if iam wrong but Here it seems you dont care what happens with changed files unless someone else finds such a file and reports it. (if its not in spec) And the idea seems that 0 is inconvenient so you change it to 1 Its not that 0 could fundamentally not be intended to mean 0 We are before a release and id like to fix the regression ATM objectively the only option i have is reverting 203b0e3561dea1ec459be226d805abe73e7535e5 can you provide another option ? something that fixes the regression without breaking something else ? PS: if you need random testfiles for testing arbitrary changes samples.ffmpeg.org should have alot and is also accessible with rsync so you dont need to wait and hope someone will spot an issue. thanks [...]

So if you revert 203b0e3561d and do nothing else, lavf can then fail to parse some valid files. The 'regression' then is the loss to accommodate some out-of-spec files. I've now seen the two files you linked to. It turns out that they appear to use 0 delta values for a similar purpose as mp4-negative-stts-problem.mp4. And I can accommodate that use in my patches. Updated patches have been sent. I'm able to remux both CodecCopyFailing.mp4 and m.f4v. Their playback looks acceptably similar and in sync. Any individual timestamp changes don't accumulate and cause drift. Regards, Gyan

Sounds good but that alone doesnt work well The codebase is iteratively written, the demuxers move in steps towards fewer bugs, more wide file support, better maintainability. if you start with a demuxer which supports 500 files and then it supports 550 then 700 then 800 and so on eventually it reaches 999 and now someone finds a spec compliance bug and fixes it so 1 more file is supported that developer has to try to not break past efforts of supporting other files. Because otherwise alot of past work is thrown out and thats just bad. Bad for users, bad for the people who did that work thx [...]

If they are it suggests a spec widely ignored. In this specific case however, I haven't seen any complaints about broken MP4 demuxing outside of your samples. I am on Stack Overflow and other popular support forums where users tend to first go to ask or complain. FATE which is meant to catch undesirable behaviour passes. Both those things tell me that funky files whose demuxing has changed constitute a very tiny set of files at most. And my latest set of patches restore the special handling needed for the set of files you've highlighted. Regards, Gyan

And my latest set have you considered using https://samples.ffmpeg.org/ as a set of files to test ? That should be a broader set than fate it can be downloaded with rsync if you have enough space A patch which changes some files and the amount affected is unknown vs. A patch which changes some files and was tested against all mov/mp4 files from samples and changed 5 where the change improved av-sync These 2 hypothetical commit messages give a totally different feeling to a reviewer thx [...]

That should be a broader set than fate If some behaviour change is to be checked for, it should be in FATE. That's the point of a regression test suite.

If a patch changes files, then the explanation cannot be "its convenient for the implementation" without good evidence that this convenience doesnt worsen the functionality. That requires probably extensive testing, finding files that are handled differently should be easy to do automatically. when i did some tests, i kept finding issues in your patches, this is very inefficient. You have to post the patch i have to apply it and test then reply with an explanation of the failure. We arent online at the same time / working at the same time so theres a delay and this is surely inconvenient for both of us as we have to start and stop working on this. It should be much easier if you test your demuxer changes yourself and only post them once they do not worsen some file Or of course if your demuxer changes do not change the handling of existing unrelated files then you wouldnt have to test all these unrelated files also being before a release is another factor where a quicker turnaround time for you on found bugs and thus testing yourself would be better thx [...]

This is what my original patch for max_stts_delta did. It used a default value of INT_MAX so all deltas identified as negative pre-option would still be treated as negative post-option. But you asked for a different default value. > If a patch changes files, then the explanation cannot be > "its convenient for the implementation" without good evidence that this > convenience doesnt worsen the functionality. > That requires probably extensive testing, finding files that are handled > differently should be easy to do automatically. I'll survey all mov demuxer files in the sample suite over the weekend. But note the 0-value adjustment patch is a separate and detachable issue from max_stts_delta. You can test the latest version of max_stts_delta patch with the current default value or the original default of INT_MAX and it should not break demux or sync relative to 203b0e3561~ Regards, Gyan
