Dumped opus streams have incorrect "Durations"., [TOS #6: moved from Scientific Discussion] Options

Hi
I've tried dumping some opus streams to file, but the results are strange.
Dumped files have incorrect "Durations".
This makes confusion when the files are played with VLC or SMPlayer etc.

What causes opus streams to create files with incorrect "Durations"?
And how can I fix it?

For example, a 30 second sample:-

CODE

timeout 30 ffmpeg -y -i http://radioserver1.delfa.net/64.opus -c copy SmoothJazz1.opus

MediaInfo shows incorrect Duration 4mn 17s.

Similar results using MPlayer

rm -f fifo && mkfifo fifo; \
timeout 30 \
mplayer -nocache -noconsolecontrols -dumpstream -dumpfile fifo \
"http://radioserver1.delfa.net/64.opus" -demuxer lavf \
& ffmpeg -y -i fifo -c copy SmoothJazz2.opus \
&& rm -f fifo

MediaInfo shows incorrect Duration 2mn 18s.
