[Paraview] Paraview 3.10 RC bits: unable to save animation

[David Partyka]

Hi Madhura,

I can recreate this bug with my own binary but also discovered it seems to
work if the frame rate is a power of 2 (2,4,8,16,32,..). I have a feeling
something is going wrong possibly computing bit rates etc when initializing
ffmpeg. Do you mind also reporting a bug on ParaView.org/Bug.

Thanks!
