Having problems with my transcode :(
I've been trying to get ffmpeg to transcode files automatically for me, but I've been having some problems with the playback. It would work for a time (1/2 an hour to an hour) and then crash my dvd player, requiring me to turn it off and on again via the power button.
My command lines look like this (this is a code fragment in batch which is attached): Code:
ffmpeg -i "%infile%" -vtag DIVX -f avi -vcodec mpeg4 -aspect %dar% -s %resolution% -b:v %vbps% \ -acodec libmp3lame -ab 128000 -ar 48000 -ac 2 -pass 1 -passlogfile %passLogFile% -y NUL ffmpeg -i "%infile%" -vtag DIVX -f avi -vcodec mpeg4 -aspect %dar% -s %resolution% -b:v %vbps% \ -acodec libmp3lame -ab 128000 -ar 48000 -ac 2 -pass 2 -passlogfile %passLogFile% -y "%outfile%.avi" Thanks, |\/|x Last edited by Guest; 18th September 2012 at 23:14.

Asking about MPEG-4 ASP encoding on the MPEG-4 AVC subforum.
Which video formats does your player support besides MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 ASP? It those are the only options, maybe you could try encoding with Xvid instead of libavcodec. Or try a different resolution and framerate. How big are the AVI files that crash the player? What happens if you encode the movie to fit under 1 or 2 GB? |

Moved to MPEG-4 ASP forum.
Also, you might want to consider using xvid instead of ffmpeg's MPEG-4 Part 2 encoder. This used to be best practice, but I'm not so sure anymore. MPEG-4 Part 10 / AVC / H.264 has totally replaced MPEG-4 Part 2 for me.

Sorry, I'm not sure about all of these formats. That's why I'm asking. What is MPEG-4 ASP?

Does anyone have any idea why my DVD player is crashing? Am I correct that it should be able to take a MPEG-4 AVS file? If so, what command line should I use? Thanks all. |\/|x |

From what you posted, your player does not play AVC video (H.264).
Because it is crap? Post a sample file that crashes it and we can see if it crashes on our players. Quote:

Yeah, I was mistaken, I meant to type ASP regarding the MPEG-4 Part 2 standard. |
