Right, I suppose that mediainfo could be reporting incorrect information.
Not sure how to verify mediainfo. The video seems to play okay, so maybe my
frame rate concerns aren't valid.
Here's the console output of my ffmpeg command. The only thing that jumps
out at me that might be a concern is:

The complete ffmpeg console output from your command is missing.
How do you know that mediainfo isn't the problem?

I'm using the latest windows ffmpeg build. To change interlaced MPEG-2 video
from a mkv to mp4 container, the command I'm using is "ffmpeg -i
input.mkv -vcodec copy -acodec copy out.mp4". I'm concerned that the
out.mp4 file has a variable frame rate, while the input.mkv file has a
constant frame rate of 29.970:
input.mkv:
Width: 720 pixels
Height: 480 pixels
Display aspect ratio: 16:9
Frame rate mode: Constant
Frame rate: 29.970 fps
Standard: NTSC
Color space: YUV
Chroma subsampling: 4:2:0
Bit depth: 8 bits
Scan type: Interlaced
Scan order: Top Field First
out.mp4:
Width: 720 pixels
Height: 480 pixels
Display aspect ratio: 16:9
Original display aspect ratio: 16:9
Frame rate mode: Variable
Frame rate: 24.077 fps
Original frame rate: 29.970 fps
Minimum frame rate: 20.000 fps
Maximum frame rate: 30.303 fps
Standard: NTSC
Color space: YUV
Chroma subsampling: 4:2:0
Bit depth: 8 bits
Scan type: Interlaced
Scan order: Top Field First
What's the best way to change this video to a MP4 container and maintain a
constant frame rate without transcoding? I tried to force interlace support
(-ilme), but the windows build doesn't seem to support that.
Thanks.
