Hmm, I've recently started an effort to use libav for muxing in HandBrake. 
https://reviews.handbrake.fr/r/494/

HandBrake does variable framerate encoding by default.  I haven't seen any 
synchronization issues as of yet (in mplayer
or vlc).  As a test, I just ran the worst variable rate sample I have through 
this new code and don't see any problems
from beginning to end.  My sample is a DVD that switches constantly between 
film and ntsc rates.  Do any of you have
variable rate sources that you can demonstrate this problem with?  I would be 
glad to test them.
