the mp4 was made using mencoder and libformat. Any idea why it doesn't like it?

[edit]

VLC plays it.

seems I can fix it by passing it through ffmpeg...
kinda ugly solution

bond · 4th January 2007, 20:23

Sirber · 4th January 2007, 20:24

bframes yes, but you didn't accept my 5$ to fix it

you never said it was generaly screwed with no hope...

bond · 4th January 2007, 20:27

hm indeed

well seems mp4box detected another bug

Jeez yea...

Placing PCM audio streams within the MP4 container is not very elegant. Especially as (in this instance) the audio stream is nearly "five" times greater than the AVC video stream....

AAC-LC at 320Kbps is pretty transparent....

Cheers

error in my code, the MP4 wasn't supposed to hold audio.
the same error happens whitout audio.
