[FFmpeg-user] Can't write packet with unknown timestamp

What's going wrong with my remux? '-dn' tells ffmpeg to ignore data (stream 0, i.e., nav packets) 
yet I get "Timestamps are unset in a packet for stream 0".

Thanks,
Mark.

ffmpeg -i "concat:VTS_01_1.VOB|VTS_01_2.VOB|VTS_01_3.VOB|VTS_01_4.VOB|VTS_01_5.VOB|VTS_01_6.VOB" 
-map 0 -codec:v copy -codec:a copy -codec:s copy -dn "C:\AVOut\VTS_01_1.MKV" -y
