Stream mapping:
  Stream #0:0 -> #0:0 (rawvideo -> mjpeg)
Error while opening encoder for output stream #0:0 - maybe incorrect parameters such as bit_rate, rate, width or height

The bitrate out of the filtergraph should be extremely low (see the scale), but it seems based on the input one anyway. I have no idea why the fps filter makes a difference here.

As a workaround, we can add -q:v 0 to avoid the bitrate tolerance check.
