-ofps NTSC FILM (29.97)

There seems to be something wrong with the target framerate. Check the source file framerate in RealPlayer (Cmd-I). Make ffmpegX's target framerate match the source file's by selecting a framerate preset or manually typing a number.

NTSC is 29.97 fps
NTSC FILM is 23.976 fps
"NTSC FILM (29.97)" doesn't exist.

If you fixed the framerate issue, and it is still not working, then you should get a different error. Please provide that error message.
