The patch just returned duration of frame from framesync and not
actual duration of frame.
And I have not tested it extensively at all or even thought about it much.

Why? Because I find whole API including libavfilter very silly and
broken and limited.

At least I contributed numerous filters used in production, otherwise
libavfilter would probably not exist today at all in this form at
least.
It would be already rewritten several times and/or whole idea
abandoned completely because of lack of interest to develop it or poor
usage.
