Very strange problem. I have never seen that. Usually, the number of frames reported by eac3to is off by 1, but is it almost correct. I can only suggest to try to update eac3to, and verify with the command line or one of its GUIs if it fails again, or if it's a bug in BD3D2MK3D.

Again something new for me. I have already noticed once a missing or duplicated frame in one of the views (causing a slight left/right desync), but I have never notices numerous additional frames. Anyway, I doubt --preset slow could be the cause, as x264 should encode what it receives, regardless of the preset.

Menu Settings -> Use ssifsource2 for SBS/T&B

Normally no. Both should produce correctly decoded frames. The main limitation with ssifsource2 is that it can encode only in SBS or Top/Bottom, but it seems to crash less with MPLS containing many SSIF parts, and it's why BD3D2MK3D offers to use it anyway for SBS or T&B if it's the case.
