29.97 fps is the same as the "60" in "1080/60i." 60i refers to
60000/1001 fields per second, which is equivalent to 30000/1001 frames
per second, where 29.97 is a more common way
to refer to that frame rate.

gmerlin does not use the FFmpeg demuxers; it uses gavl and
libquicktime. MLT uses FFmpeg's demuxers. What does 'ffmpeg -i
your_file' report as far as duration is concerned? Does it match what
kdenlive/MLT indicates? If it does, you can report this with FFmpeg
and hope to get it fixed in a future version.
