Description

Summary of the bug:
Trying to make looped animation from several source images, raising framerate from 2 FPS to 25 FPS.
After several loops, order of frames was wrong in some places.

How to reproduce:

Take png files from attach.

 ffmpeg -f image2 -loop 1 -framerate 2 -i '/tmp/arrow_%1d.png' -frames 1000 -vf fps=fps=25 /tmp/tmp.ts -y

Analyzed by developer: set

The timestamp logic in vf_fps is wrong. The major culprit is this hunk:

    /* number of output frames */
    delta = av_rescale_q_rnd(buf->pts - s->pts, inlink->time_base,
                             outlink->time_base, s->rounding);

As you can see, it means: number of frames to output = (time of next frame) - (time of current frame) rescaled to output frame rate. In this particular case (2 FPS -> 25 FPS, it is 12.5, rounded to 13. Rounded to 13 every time. That means a 0.5/25 error for every input frame.

The in this case fix would be to convert all timestamps to the output time base immediately, but it must be tested also when decreasing the frame rate and other corner cases.

As a temporary workaround, I suggest: -vf fps=50,framestep=2: 2→50 is exact, and framestep is easy.
