Hey guys!
So I'm really trying hard to get good at FFMpeg, and I had one particular reason to use it lately. I occasionally convert VHS tapes to DVD, and I do this by way of an El Gato capture card. Normally I would use Avidemux for something like this, but for some reason I can't get the captured files to open in that program. The El Gato native capture format is AVC inside of a .ts container, with the following streams in it:
All I need is stream 0:0 and 0:2.Code:Stream #0:0[0x64]: Video: h264 (High) ([27][0][0][0] / 0x001B), yuv420p(tv, smpte170m/smpte170m/bt709, top first), 720x480 [SAR 10:11 DAR 15:11], 29.97 fps, 59.94 tbr, 90k tbn, 59.94 tbc Stream #0:1[0x66]: Video: mpeg2video ([2][0][0][0] / 0x0002), none(tv), 90k tbr, 90k tbn, 90k tbc Stream #0:2[0x67](eng): Audio: aac (LC) ([15][0][0][0] / 0x000F), 48000 Hz, stereo, fltp, 227 kb/s Stream #0:3[0x69](eng): Audio: aac (LC) ([15][0][0][0] / 0x000F), 48000 Hz, stereo, fltp, 224 kb/s Stream #0:4[0x3ec](eng): Audio: aac (LC) ([15][0][0][0] / 0x000F), 48000 Hz, stereo, fltp, 224 kb/s Stream #0:5[0x3f0](eng): Audio: aac (LC) ([15][0][0][0] / 0x000F), 48000 Hz, stereo, fltp, 224 kb/s Stream #0:6[0x3f7](eng): Audio: aac (LC) ([15][0][0][0] / 0x000F), 48000 Hz, stereo, fltp, 224 kb/s Stream #0:7[0x65](eng): Audio: aac (LC) ([15][0][0][0] / 0x000F), 48000 Hz, stereo, fltp, 227 kb/s Stream #0:8[0x3f3](eng): Audio: aac (LC) ([15][0][0][0] / 0x000F), 48000 Hz, stereo, fltp, 224 kb/s Stream #0:9[0x3eb](eng): Audio: aac (LC) ([15][0][0][0] / 0x000F), 48000 Hz, stereo, fltp, 224 kb/s Stream #0:10[0x3f5](eng): Audio: aac (LC) ([15][0][0][0] / 0x000F), 48000 Hz, stereo, fltp, 224 kb/s Stream #0:11[0x3ed](eng): Audio: aac (LC) ([15][0][0][0] / 0x000F), 48000 Hz, stereo, fltp, 224 kb/s Stream #0:12[0x3f1](eng): Audio: aac (LC) ([15][0][0][0] / 0x000F), 48000 Hz, stereo, fltp, 224 kb/s Stream #0:13[0x4e7](eng): Audio: aac (LC) ([15][0][0][0] / 0x000F), 48000 Hz, stereo, fltp, 224 kb/s
The following command is what I use to select those two streams and swap to an .MP4 container so it will play nice with a wider variety of programs.
And it...sort of works? The audio and video play, but there are some discrepancies reported by MediaInfo, notably the bitrate which confuses me.Code:ffmpeg -i MOVIE.ts -map 0:0 -map 0:2 -c:v copy -c:a copy OUTPUT.mp4
Original video (with irrelevant audio streams excluded):

Further, when converting the video, the following message shows up repeatedly through the conversion process:Code:General Complete name : C:\Users\Cursed Lemon\Videos\EGC_Library\My Great Game - My Great Capture - 2018-08-25 00-24-05\test.mp4 Format : MPEG-4 Format profile : Base Media Codec ID : isom (isom/iso2/avc1/mp41) File size : 1.97 GiB Duration : 24 min 30 s Overall bit rate mode : Variable Overall bit rate : 11.5 Mb/s Writing application : Lavf58.17.103 Video ID : 1 Format : AVC Format/Info : Advanced Video Codec Format profile : High@L3.1 Format settings, CABAC : Yes Format settings, ReFrames : 2 frames Format settings, GOP : M=2, N=14 Codec ID : avc1 Codec ID/Info : Advanced Video Coding Duration : 24 min 30 s Bit rate : 11.3 Mb/s Width : 720 pixels Height : 480 pixels Display aspect ratio : 4:3 Frame rate mode : Variable Frame rate : 59.940 (59940/1000) FPS Minimum frame rate : 6.660 FPS Maximum frame rate : 90 000.000 FPS Original frame rate : 29.970 (30000/1001) FPS Color space : YUV Chroma subsampling : 4:2:0 Bit depth : 8 bits Scan type : Interlaced Scan type, store method : Separated fields Scan order : Top Field First Bits/(Pixel*Frame) : 0.543 Stream size : 1.93 GiB (98%) Color range : Limited Color primaries : BT.601 NTSC Transfer characteristics : BT.709 Matrix coefficients : BT.601 Audio ID : 2 Format : AAC Format/Info : Advanced Audio Codec Format profile : LC Codec ID : 40 Duration : 24 min 30 s Bit rate mode : Variable Bit rate : 221 kb/s Maximum bit rate : 228 kb/s Channel(s) : 2 channels Channel positions : Front: L R Sampling rate : 48.0 kHz Frame rate : 46.875 FPS (1024 spf) Compression mode : Lossy Stream size : 38.8 MiB (2%) Language : English Default : Yes Alternate group : 1
Similarly, when I attempt to swap the container to an MKV instead of an MP4, I get the following error:Code:...

Does anyone know what this error means, and why the video characteristics (frame rate, bit rate, etc.) are showing differently?Code:...

EDIT: This also seems to happen when I try to concatenate the TS files using FFMpeg.

Hi, I've seen that "Non-monotonous DTS in output stream" problem from time to time, too. Usually connected to the audio stream.
Is it possible that you extract a piece of your video and upload it? -
I've attached a small fragment that the El Gato software decided needed its own "chapter". :BOriginally Posted by fornit

Try adding -copytb 1 as an output option.

It seems that decoding time stamps are broken. You can try "-fflags +igndts" to regenerate DTS based on PTS:
Code:ffmpeg -fflags +igndts -i MOVIE.ts -map 0:0 -map 0:2 -c:v copy -c:a copy OUTPUT.mp4
