You mean this?

Stream #0.0, 29.97 fps(c): Video: dvvideo, yuv420p, 720x480, q=2-31, 200 kb/s
                                           ^^^^^^^

Sounds like this might be the same bug I've been seeing?

I found a workaround:  add "-pixfmt yuv411p".  Which as far as I can tell
only changes the printout, the actual DV output is not affected.
