Actually, -ofps sucks and doesn't support rational numbers like
24000/1001. The only way I can find that works is -ofps 23.976023976
(or for 30000/1001, -ofps 29.97002997). You need that much precision
to get it to "grab on" to the exact value...so stupid...

When I figure out how I'll make -ofps support rational numbers.
