@rlittles Your command pulls bitrate from the video stream header metadata. That data is not required to be written to the stream, and MKV doesn't support it, IIRC. MKV stores that info in the container, meaning you need to replace stream=bit_rate with format=bit_rate in your example for MKV containers.

@rlittles I get the same; this is with a video that I encoded in h.264 CRF from a formerly lossless ffv1 video capture that I inverse telecine'd. Stream #0:0: Video: h264 (High 4:2:2), yuv422p(tv, progressive), 720x480, 23.98 fps, 23.98 tbr, 1k tbn

Can you post the output of $ ffprobe <your-video-here>? It could have something to do with the format of your video. @benyamin
