h264/flv decoding regression

[Dee]

Hi,
I am trying to transcode attached flv file (dunaya.flv) to mpegts but the resultant file is not playable in vlc or in any other player. Original file plays fine in vlc. Ffmpeg log (output of -report) is also attached.

dunya.flv can also be downloaded form the following link:
​http://www10.zippyshare.com/v/92903604/file.html

I am using ffmpeg-20140225-git-a8ad7e4-win32-static with following command line:
ffmpeg.exe -report -y -i dunya.flv dunya.ts

I see following messages in the log:
[flv @ 003a69e0] Format flv probed with size=2048 and score=100
[flv @ 003a69e0] Before avformat_find_stream_info() pos: 13 bytes read:32768 seeks:0
[h264 @ 003a7fa0] no picture
..
[flv @ 003a69e0] Non-increasing DTS in stream 0: packet 2 with DTS 0, packet 3 with DTS 0
(similar message repeated many times)
..
[mpegts @ 047f1020] Delay between the first packet and last packet in the muxing queue is 10040000 > 10000000: forcing output.
(similar message repeated many times)
..
* drop!
(similar message repeated many times)
..

older ffmpeg versions produce similar result.

Any idea whats wrong here?

Thank you,
Dee

Did you test reverting the offending commit?

[Dee]

Sorry no, I have only been using Zeranoe FFmpeg builds.
