Haven't heard of such streams, but let's take it granted. Why does it mean that above statement is false? If there's no IDR frames, then it is safe to assume that this stream has no seek points guaranteed to be valid (unless we introspect the references between frames). I don't see anything wrong with such statement. > Do I understand correctly that your issue is that FFmpeg > doesn't tell you if an I-frame in an H264 stream is an > IDR frame or not?
