Remuxing a TS file to MP4 results in a less fluid video I'm trying to convert a .ts file to an .mp4. I'm using the following ffmpeg command:

ffmpeg -i all.ts -c copy all.mp4


This results in a noticeable loss in the fluidity of the video, which looks much more fluid in the original .ts format when viewed in VLC. 

Output of ffmpeg:

There's lots of Invalid timestamps and Invalid DTS errors, but I'm not sure they're related to the problem.

I've uploaded a small sample to demonstrate the error: here is the original TS file, and here the not-so-fluid MP4 result.

Any idea of how to fix this? I have noticed that the problem does not occur if I re-encode the video track with h264, but I'd really like to just remux as the original TS looks just fine.

Thanks!
There's lots of Invalid timestamps and Invalid DTS errors, but I'm not sure they're related to the problem.

They are, frames in video streams with B-frames are not encoded or stored in presentation order, so the presentation timestamps have to be correctly offset for fluid playback. In this TS sample, you have presentation timestamps earlier than decoding timestamps, which are invalid, and ffmpeg defaults to assigning the DTS as the new PTS.

Instead, use existing PTS as the reference.

ffmpeg -fflags +igndts -i all.ts -c copy all.mp4
