 This is not a usable solution:
 - if you are not using an input file, you do not control the pace. The
difference between the real PTS and the fake one will grow indefinitly.
 - in case of frame lost -> same things.

Unless the support by ffmpeg is really worst, I would prefer letting ffmpeg
decode dirac until this issue is fixed.
