-vcodec copy NEEDS the FPS, or FFmpeg bitches. When I add -r 25, it does the 
re-wrap, but output gives the same trouble in Avid.

FFmpeg reports the frame size has changed from 1088 to 1080, and all is 
well.
(Except the UUID or something is copied over, so doing the dance twice to 
two filenames makes Avid refuse to import both, as it 'knows' it already...)

Nice details, with -vcodec copy also timecode comes across (From MXF to MOV 
and vice-versa.)
Also the interlace flag is set without issue.

Yes, see here:

Note, this is an AVID generated mixdown of the (good) AMA linked MOV. Tc has 
changed to seqence TC (00:00:00:00)

Let me know if you need more, and thanks!
