I have encountered an issue while recording a youtube live stream. Because of some youtube or broadcaster problems the time can jump from 00:28:03.36 to, say, 20:00:01.20. The time always jumps for at least 10 hours. It is also stream-independent. One more interesting thing: the bitrate drops at this point significantly, it looks like only audio is being recorded.
frame=40145 fps= 24 q=-1.0 size= 238241kB time=00:28:03.36 bitrate=1159.4kbits/
frame=40145 fps= 24 q=-1.0 size= 238241kB time=20:00:01.20 bitrate=153.4kbits/
It would be wonderful if you could solve this issue, but it's probably difficult to find the cause, so I suggest you to add an option to include ffmpeg's -t and -to flags. This way I could set the duration limit to 1 hour, forcing ffmpeg to mux the file after the jump occurs (or 1 hour passes).
