The PTS is quite accurate moment of when the capture started or finished.
It is provided buy the Linux kernel driver.

Check your code, since the PTS is always the same as the DTS when produced
by v4l2src. The only way I see to break this, is to set do-timestamp=true,
this is wrong and should not be set this way.
