Muxer (multiplexer) combines multiple data streams into single stream eg. for transfer. From https://stackoverflow.com/a/76222700: The 'non monotonically increasing dts' issue is mainly a result of streaming the input video file in a loop. Each time the loop starts, the timestamps starts from the beginning. The remuxing procedure copies the timestamps from the input to the output, so there is a 'non-increased DTS scenario' each time the loop restarts. Is it a bug in the validating software? - no ------------------ Possible solutions ------------------ .. contents:: :local: Convert file format with ffmpeg =============================== Suggestion ~~~~~~~~~~ The problematic WMA file is converted to WAVE format using FFMpeg.
