[Not Hybrid related] MPEG-TS files with corrupt timestamps

[Selur]

How come Hybrid can't remux it this way?

Hybrid does extract the audio and video separately and not in one good.
Which isn't a problem if the source hasn't any defects, but can cause problem on damaged content.
(No Hybrid can't simply add this dehaviour, since it would require to rewrite tons of code.)

While remuxing, it seems like FFmpeg ignores the "-r" flag.

Probably since you only used it as input option.
Instead of:

ffmpeg -r 25 -i d:\sample.ts -c copy d:\thing.mp4

try:

ffmpeg -i d:\sample.ts -c copy -r 25 d:\thing.mp4

(adding "-fflags +genpts -r 25" before the '-i ' might also help)

Interesting, but Hybrid exports a 100 FPS file for me, in this case.

I guess I'll just export & deinterlace them using FFmpeg.

you could also use "Filtering->SpeedChange->Change speed" to tell Hybrid to change the fps flag on the output.

Update: thie file still doesn't have proper timestamps. I get this error in FFmpeg after trying to deinterlace the remuxed file.

cur_dts is invalid st:0 (0) [init:0 i_done:0 finish:0]

Command used:

ffmpeg -c:v h264_cuvid -deint 2 -i "d:\sample.mp4" -c:v libx264 -profile:v high -preset veryfast -crf 18 -x264opts "keyint=500" -c:a copy "d:\sample.mkv"

try with "-fflags +genpts -r 25" before the ' -i ':

ffmpeg -c:v h264_cuvid -deint 2 -fflags +genpts -r 25 -i "d:\sample.mp4" -c:v libx264 -profile:v high -preset veryfast -crf 18 -x264opts "keyint=500" -c:a copy "d:\sample.mkv"

this should tell ffmpeg to recalculate the input time stamps.
