Remuxing video fails

[Ian Lynagh]

I was trying to remux ​http://urchin.earth.li/~ian/video_problem/00001.MTS (8 MB) but I get:

I get this outcome with -acodec copy -vcodec copy, and muxing to avi, mpeg4, asf, and probably others. The non-monotonic TS is different for each muxer, but is constant for a same muxer.

[Sergey]

I get similar output with latest ffmpeg from master. Muxing ​http://archive.dev.video.oprf.ru/conference_9/speaker/conference_9_1_1.flv to mp4.

Got:

Please open a new ticket if you cannot reproduce the original issue with the original sample.

[wlzh]

this ticket is resolved by the newest version of libav.

i test just now.
