patch ok

btw in case you are curious why it causes problems, its because
90000 % 14 != 0 :)

The frame rate guessing code realizes that 14fps is the best matching but
its not good enough, thus the code leaves 90khz as the recommanded timebase
instead of recommanding 14hz.
ffmpeg then will encode at 90000 frames per second to preserve the wrong
timestamps your demuxer generates.
use of -r 14 (force 14fps) or -vsync 0 (variable "fps" / no frame dup/drop)
should have worked around it.

That reminds me that we need should add a flag to muxers signalling if they
can handle -vsync 0. That way it could be set to a more sane default
(patches welcome ...)
