It appears that the simplest way I've found to adequately handle this conversion then is to use something like: ffmpeg -i 2024_telecine_source.mpg -c:v libx264 -c:a copy -r 24000/1001 2024_telecine_source_film.m4v Does that work mainly because it removes the soft telecine flag, as Rens suggested? Here's another question that has arisen through serendipity. When I first tested the above, I simply failed to notice that the -r option existed twice, and the command I ran was actually: ffmpeg -r 24 -i 2024_telecine_source.mpg -c:v libx264 -c:a copy -r 24000/1001 2024_telecine_source_film.m4v I discovered that running it with just one "-r" value specified (either "-r 24", or "-r 24000/1001") resulted in many repeated instances of "Past duration 0.xxxxxx too large" in the shell output. The video output appears the same. Why would specifying 2 "-r" values prevent the appearance of "Past duration 0.xxxxxx too large" with no apparent adverse affect to the conversion? Thanks.
