Yep, understood that, but what about the rest of the question. If I use
-ofps 25, it makes playable video, but can the variable FPS in ASF make
tricks? I mean, if WMV element in the AFS file says it has variable
framerate, but I force it to be 25 FPS in AVI, does it mess up the video
or maybe WMV-decoder doesn't care what AVI-container says about FPS?

And the 2) part, got it, the streamdumped AFS file is missing the header
and therefore does not produce a working videofile. Any solution to
that?
