Indeed, I also tried many different filter combinations on this sample
and the only thing that works is your combination of pullup,yadif=3
and -fps -ofps settings

I try to do a simple transcoding (because x264 playback is slow on my machine), nothing more. I don't care about the framerate, I only want the video in a well playable format, that's all.
