Hi,

I had a TS stream with MPEG-2 video and MP3 audio.
I need to address this stream with container start time code value.For the same from the TS container which header(descriptor) will give a valid time code ?

:thanks:
Dave

You need to give us more information on what kind of file this is.
Look at this for some ideas: http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=120581

In a transport stream you have PTS/DTS timestamps, and in some cases the GOP header carries a time code (but it is not mandatory, even GOP headers themselves are optional).

Thanks neuron2,
Other than visual data [say TS + MPEG-2 video sequence header] where i get FPS information in a container.

Why can't you use the video stream?

BTW, a transport stream is not strictly speaking a "container".
