Really needs an flv guru to have a look over it, the rtmp timestamps that the BBC sends are bizarre - they seem to cycle over a sequence of the same numbers (48, 46, 45, 42, 38, . . .) and seem to have no real meaning. I've tried alsorts with them, does anyone know where to regenerate these from? I *think* that this is the reason for the framerate and sync issues on the video. I've taken a look over the FLV file specification and its got no real mention of it, however if I convert this file into MP4 it plays perfectly.
If you're not really sure whether you can help with the framerate stuff then to be honest i'd not bother downloading this particular release yet.
