Ok.  Kinda unfortunate as I suppose that makes troubleshooting harder.

Fair enough.  Actually the phenomenon I observed with filmdint went away
with I ripped with -nosound, so my suspicion of filmdint was a red
herring.  MEncoder seems to drop some frames after it detects that the
video is 24fps progressive with -oac copy, but it doesn't do this with
-nosound.  I suppose this has to do with the black magic that is A/V
sync.  With a fully 24fps progressive movie, that's not really a problem
since those frames will get dropped right at the beginning.

At least the bug in pullup is real.  Hopefully the clip I uploaded helps
in narrowing it down.

Cheers,
Jason.
