Oooh, silly me!

The problem seems to be solved. (Just by trying the quick test above.
Let's see, if the whole video really works., though.) Embarassing that
I got the idea just now. I am very sorry.

In case you are interested:

The problem was that I forgot to finalize the DVD-RW disc after
recording. Since the camcorder was borrowed, I did not have access to
it to finalize the disc later. Therefore, I copied the raw disc to an
image file and ran photorec. It recovered MPG files which I joined
with the ffmpeg concat demuxer and transcoded (with some filters
applied) to x264.

However, some timing information seems to have been lost during the
process. I now tried:
tail -c +NNNN Camcorder.img | ffmpeg -i - -vf morestuff test.mp4

The aforementioned test does not fail anymore.
