GStreamer does not accept PTS to decrease and set the new PTS
with the value of the previous one.

Hi,

I looked in gstreamer documentation [0] that mentions:
"The buffer PTS refers to the timestamp when the buffer
 content should be presented to the user and is not always
 monotonically increasing."

It does not mean your claim is not true - maybe a decreasing
PTS is only allowed for H264 B frames (and similar).

[0] https://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/1.14/gstreamer/html/GstBuffer.html

This causes our code to not match output frames with input ones.
Make sure PTS always increases (even if very slowly).

Consider adding that this can happen when "latency" is changing
and becomes smaller.

Other than that, looks good to me.

Uri.
