There is something odd going on. I compiled with ffmpeg-2.5.3, ffmpeg-2.1.7
and ffmpeg-2.0.6. I don't see any difference.

Fedora 20 version is ffmpeg-2.1.7-1.fc20.x86_64 and seems to work better.

I was able to reproduce the effect by changing the FPS.  Can you tell me 
some of the FPS stats for your setup?  In particular:
FPS that camera is sending (also whether it is a netcam or webcam.)
FPS that is specified in the config
Turn on NTC level for logging in the config and when it starts a movie, 
it should report out a
event_new_video FPS and a Selected Output FPS
when it creates any new video.

When I had all of these in sync somewhat the videos were better.
