Comment:

 There is a limitation with time value displays in showinfo but this is not
 it. showinfo uses a field width of 7 characters, so it can and does
 display e.g. `2.96667`. When there are fewer characters shown, it means
 the remaining digits are 0 i.e. `pts_time:1` indicates `1.00000`.

 As for ffprobe, using the bare command will just show the input dump (same
 as ffmpeg) which is meant to be a summary display. For precision, you
 should use the sectional display. For input container duration, you would
 use

 `ffprobe -show_entries format=duration -i INPUT` which will print with
 microsecond precision, e.g.

 {{{
 [FORMAT]
 duration=179.468005
 [/FORMAT]
 }}}
