Unfortunately :tsaf and :init_vpts=100 did not fix the movies; only the conversion to ES 
fixed them.

Also there is another problem: under WMP9 the ES movie looks very bad (blocks missing, 
repeated, etc.), but under WMP10 it is perfect. Leaving only keyint=15 in the options does 
not changed the result.

What do you think: should I look at FFMpeg for this conversion?

Ciao!
