That seems to be the expected behavior from the fps filter's averaging.

Do take a look at the documentation of the select filter. It even has
an example on how to extract certain frames, e.g. by number:

https://ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg-filters.html#select_002c-aselect

    Select one frame every 100:
        select='not(mod(n\,100))'

Cheers,
