That I don't know. Maybe it decided to detect the MP3 file correctly?
(See below.)

I agree with you. Unfortunately, the probing code (and to be honest,
a whole bunch of transcode) is, well, really messy. We're working on it--
slowly, but we're working on it. (:

You can output MPEG video using the ffmpeg export module (-y ffmpeg
-F mpeg1 [or mpeg2 or whatever]). Whether ffmpeg can pass that through or
not, I don't know.
