However there seems to be some missing parts to make it work for my use case. I've tried adding AV_PKT_DATA_PRFT in my avdevice implementation, but the side data gets lost when being coded inte h264. Looking at the libx264 encoder it has some code to create new PRFT data from av_gettime(), this is not what I want to do. I would like to preserve the PRFT from the input. I guess I can add prft side data to the AVFrame created by rawdec so it's forwarded to libx264, but I feel maybe this should be done on a higher level? Would it make sense to always copy PRFT from input packet to the encoded packet? > > > I hope this mailing list is appropriate for my question, otherwise please > > forgive me. > > It is only appropriate for this mailing list if you want to improve > FFmpeg itself (i.e. by making the hls muxer use AV_PKT_DATA_PRFT; the > dash muxer already seems to use it).
