[Bug 758949] qtmux can't handle missing DTS

[GStreamer (GNOME Bugzilla)]

--- Comment #12 from Matej Knopp <matej.knopp at gmail.com> ---
I'm currently using my own fork of qtmux. I've looked at the code and the
entire DTS/PTS handling is different so I can't tell if the proposed patch
would break anything. 

But it's not a very good solution. As soon as you tried muxing something with
b-frames where you have non-monotonous PTS you'll get corrupted output. 

The way we address missing DTS is to take PTS, sort them and shift them back
just enough so that DTS <= PTS. But this of course introduces another latency,
and it's not always easy to know how much the timestamps need to be shifted.
