-------------------------------------+-------------------------------------
 I'm trying to transcode different video types to TS MPEG2 video and FFMPEG
 creates stuttering video with some files (some are okay say about 20% are
 stuttering).

 Since the files are too big to attach (each 60MB) I've uploaded them and
 including the links to the 2 files below:
