Sorry for repeating quotes, one more thing, which probably is not obvious.
You can specify "-r" switch (set frame rate) in the command line of ffmpeg
*before* "-i" switch. 
This makes ffmpeg to consider that *incoming* frame rate is given from
outside and it should not neither determine nor assign a default value.
