Based on the above, would jumping between Nightlie versions determine where ffmpeg2video-mmal was updated versus the version in 8.2.5?

If you're sure you have no problem with 8.2.5 and RPi3+ without the MPEG codec licence, then identifying the regression in these test builds would be useful.

Or post a sample video (5 minutes) that can hopefully be used to reproduce the problem. 

I've added an mpg2 license and confirmed that the problem is no longer present as hw oxm-mpeg2 is decoding.

This problem is definitely not present in 8.2.5.

I'll work on getting a test clip and downgrading to see if I can find where things broke.
