 Summary of the bug:
 I am attempting to transcode several MOVs that are directly from an
 iPhone4's camera roll folder.  I do not specify frame-rate, since the
 videos are variable frame-rate (24,30 fps).  For a few of the MOVs, the
 transcoded h264 output has a declared fps of 600, causing the h264 level
 to be very high, which means that some players reject playback.  I noticed
 for these MOV files that FFmpeg, in the input stats, reports "tbr 600".
 I checked the video timestamps of the particular files using FFprobe.  All
 PTS differences don't amount to anything more than 31 fps.

 How to reproduce:
 Use the following source
 https://www.dropbox.com/s/xji1akd6tuuravd/from_iphone4.MOV

 with the following command:
 {{{
 % ffmpeg -report -i from_iphone4.MOV -c:v libx264 -crf 23 -an
 shouldbe30fps.mp4

 }}}

 I will attached the report, as the console output is annoyingly long.

 Please note that this entry is very similar to issue #2451.
