Two things:

Theora is strictly fixed frame rate. If the incoming video data is not
at a fixed frame rate, then your encoder will need to check against
the playback clock and duplicate or drop frames to make it so. Since
RTP has per-packet timestamps, this can be relaxed to simplify the
sender implementation, but once saved to an Ogg file, all players will
treat the stream as fixed frame rate. This is likely the reason your
file doesn't behave as you expect.

If you just want to adjust the frame rate of an already saved file,
you could try the little 'rogg_theora' utility I wrote.

Be aware that it doesn't support Ogg chains or files over 2 GB on 32
bit systems.
