Non-monotonous DTS in output stream 0:0; previous: 484090, current: 481360; changing to 484091. This may result in incorrect timestamps in the output file.

The command I am using is:

ffmpeg -f concat -i list.txt -c copy merged.mp4

and because of the error the .mp4 file plays one video correctly in the merged.mp4 but when the first video's runtime is over the second one fails to play.

Please suggest a fix or an alternative (I only want to use a script as I want to automate merging of multiple videos fast).

    From this answer: "All inputs must have the same stream types (same formats, same time base, etc.)". Do your input files fulfill this? Jul 7, 2022 at 6:03

This is due to the different configurations/formats of your input files, like fps. You need to convert all the files to the sample configuration, e.g., apply the following command to all input files.

ffmpeg -y -i f_current.mp4 -vf "setpts=1.25*PTS" -r 15 f_current_.mp4

That command will convert the file f_current.mp4 to f_current_.mp4 with 15 fps. Then you need to update your list.txt with the output files. You can modify the output fps and/or other settings depending on your needs. But, it's noted that the above command needs to be applied to all input files to make them have the same configurations.
