the source is kinda broken, ffmpeg refuses to encode it

Funny thing is, the source is an .mkv video cut using ffmpeg with a simple command:
> ffmpeg -ss MM:SS -i "source_file.mkv" -c copy -to MM:SS "dest_file.mkv"
Something strange I noticed is that the refresh rate (you can check this inside the mediaInfo.txt) changed to variable. I did a quick search and this seems to be a somewhat expected behaviour. Could that be the problem? Because otherwise the video plays just fine in both MPC-HC/mpv. I also tried to transcode the source file (before the ffmpeg command) and it starts without problems. Maybe there's an issue with the ffmpeg command I used, I don't use it often so it's possible that I'm missing something.
I apologize for bothering you if that's the case.
The only interesting thing about the command I used is that using the "copy" option after -c ffmpeg doesn't re-encode the source. Maybe that's a problem if the file has to be encoded afterwards?
Thanks again for helping!
