H264 frame drop with the drop of one slice / visible artefacts that do not happen with the reference decoder

Description

I am trying to transcode from .264 to yuv format.

I dropped slices (one by one) in h264 file format and then decoded the .264 to yuv format. During decoding, decoder is dropping the respective frame if I drop the header slice/first slice of the frame. Happening for P and B both.

Command line to decode- ffmpeg -b:v 512k -r 30 -i error_$sliceno.264 -b:v 512k -x264opts sar=352:288 -r 30 -y decode_$sliceno.yuv

ffmpeg -v 9 -loglevel 99 -i error_51.264

Summary: H264 frame drop with the drop of one sliceH264 frame drop with the drop of one slice / visible artefacts that do not happen with the reference decoder
Version: unspecifiedgit-master

Complete, uncut output of the failing command missing (please consider using Code block) and please mention how you patched FFmpeg for your test (git diff >slices.diff and attach slices.diff).

I can decode the first 39 frames of the sample with the reference decoder and while FFmpeg decodes the same 39 frames, only the first three and the last 20 (beginning with the second IDR frame) are bit-exact, the remaining 16 show visible artefacts with FFmpeg (that are not reproducible with the reference decoder).

For the above warning I increased the MAX_SLICE value but still getting the same warning and from the decoder on different machine with increased MAX_SLICE value where I am not getting the above warning also getting same frame drop.

following link is the place from where I installed the ffmpeg and x264 to test the stream-

Replying to cehoyos:

Complete, uncut output of the failing command missing (please consider using Code block) and please mention how you patched FFmpeg for your test (git diff >slices.diff and attach slices.diff).

I can decode the first 39 frames of the sample with the reference decoder and while FFmpeg decodes the same 39 frames, only the first three and the last 20 (beginning with the second IDR frame) are bit-exact, the remaining 16 show visible artefacts with FFmpeg (that are not reproducible with the reference decoder).

Resolution: fixed
Status: openclosed

Fixed by Michael.

The reference decoder omits one frame (the fourth frame that ffmpeg outputs), all other frames are now bit-identical for the given sample, no artefacts visible.
