Description

Summary of the bug:
Converting GIF to MP4 using FFmpeg produces a video that doesn't follow the GIF frame timings.

I'm using FFmpeg to convert a GIF into an MP4, with the following command:
ffmpeg -f gif -i ~/transparent.gif -c:v libx264 -f mp4 ./transparent.mp4

This is the input GIF: http://media.giphy.com/media/lXiRla43JDySJhTLW/giphy.gif
This is the the output mp4: https://vid.me/aGv6

it seems like FFmpeg is skipping the first frame of the GIF, and skips the timing for the last frame (the first and last frame are 2000ms long, yet it doesn't halt at the end like it does in the beginning).

The frame timings are: (produced with ImageMagick -- 'identify -format '%T|' ~/transparent.gif')
200|5|5|5|5|10|10|10|10|10|10|10|200

This means the first frame should be 2000ms long, and so is the last one. For the last frame, the timing is messed (doesn't half for 2000ms), and it seems to skip the first frame, which doesn't show the metal hand. You could look at the input GIF and see that it is different from the product MP4.

How to reproduce:
Re-run the command described above on the input GIF linked to above.

Reproduced by developer: set
Resolution: fixed
Status: newclosed

The first frame looks different with git master, thus i think this has been fixed
