This worked fine with me if I removed the "-ss" and "-t" options. It played fine in VLC at lease. I reported no dropped/dupped frames in the encode. It reported that it was 23.9 fps, but actually contained all 3166 frames of the original.


When I added the -ss and -t options I got segfaults.  The command that worked for me was:

$ ffmpeg -i rkszxnz.mkv -threads 3 -speed 5  -vsync 0 test.webm
