I get this value from Windows Media Player -> Statistics

When I encode this wmv using FFMpeg, FFMpeg also detect this value and
use this as the frame rate (if I omitted `-r`), of coz I also get this
value using Mplayer with `-v` option but the whole file need to play
once.

I just wonder if I `really` need to playback the whole video to get
the correct FPS. Or can future version of mencoder can handle this
automatically?
