No, mkv is very different from mov/mp4

I understand that, but the mkv support is broken still after a year - why would the mov/mp4 bug report be treated any differently? The subject comes up on the mail list every month or so - each time with a slightly different form. The key thing in *all* of them, is the codec = copy... There appears to be some fundamental problem in the timestamping code when you are *copying* a perfectly working stream (acodec and vcodec=copy shows the problem on the submitted mkvs).

Le septidi 7 brumaire, an CCXXI, Zarathustra a écrit :

There are several bugs in ffmpeg relating to straight copying. many times when it could simply use the existing parameters for the output but instead substitutes inane values, then errors. Lazy groidism is rampant.

Where are your bug reports?

So, the solution is to explicitly code both streams, not using "copy".

This is not a solution at all. Regards, -- Nicolas George

Fortunately, I don't understand the last sentence ;-) Seriously: Sending an answer to a 30-months old mailing list thread is rarely a good idea, and given that at least dozens of "straight copying" bugs were fixed since (most of the remaining issues simply need "-fflags +genpts"), you should really provide your failing command line together with complete, uncut console output and sample, maybe we can help you.

Well, they're you've all got it.

What what? If you hadn't excised all context I might have had a chance of figuring out what you meant to type. Most old-fashioned netiquette has a reason; congratulations on tripping over one of the reasons for quoting. (Yes, I know you're using nabble. Most of us aren't. If you don't want to put the work in to give us a bit of context, that's fine, but then you can hardly expect the rest of us to put the work in to go get it either.)

This "follow our inane rules or you don't exist" is what "extreme groidism" means.

Thanks for explaining that neologism, that's always a good idea on a mailing list where many of the most frequent contributors don't have English as their first language. I had googled the term, but since most of the first page linked to this thread I gave up. I wondered if it was related to "grody", which I haven't heard in over a decade, but apparently not.

It's called testing. There is really scant error handling for cases where parameters *aren't* specified. Thousands waste hours every day because of it and all you care is that your cognescenti don't have to waste as much time figuring out how your "tested to spec and sweet fuck all the error cases" software works. That's the essence of "groidism".

Have you: (a) raised a bug report on the bug tracker about this? Preferably in more detail that "it's broken" if you don't want the time-honoured tech support response of "have you tried switching it off and on again?" (b) attempted to fix it yourself? This is an open source project, anyone can submit patches. I very much doubt it's an easy option, but it is on the table there. If neither of the above, why are you expecting something to magically happen?

For those that just want a solution, don't code "-copy" when you're getting these errors. Specify the parameters.

Well, it's a solution, but it's a remarkably poor one. Unless you really want different encoding parameters, decoding and reencoding will compound the loss of quality inherent in whatever codec you are using, quite apart from taking a lot longer. -- Rhodri James Kynesim Ltd

And a big thank-you to me... Ran into the problem again today and didn't remember the answer was to not code "-acodec copy", but "-acodec libmp3lame" or whatever you like. Fixed it again. Meanwhile, no movement on the bug fix. AND WHY, EXACTLY, IS THAT NOT A SOLUTION??? This is sooooo typical. You have a bug report for this when one is encoding a mkv, and every thread it's mentioned says stuff like, "have you opened a report for mp4", etc. This is real simple. The error message is wrong. If you're going to throw everything up in the air and quit, then explain why. As it stands the error handler closes the file and the caller says, "Oh, can't write to file" and exits. THAT is something that is not a solution. Oh, might want to sit down. This will be a huge shock. *whispers* (You could ignore the error and continue coding with the sync params from before the error and it would work just fine! But you'd rather have the program fail so that you KNOW there was a glitch of no consequence in the source. Wouldn't you? Hey, the programmer know more about what you want to do than you do!) -async 1 is a special case where only the start of the audio stream is corrected without any later correction. It is often helpful when you have audio and video out of sync, but the streams are the correct (same) length, and you just want it to start together and then keeping writing at that rate without trying to "help you". Yeah, it's one of the few examples where you can turn off the wonderful feature that doesn't work. This is how MS works. Why improve your product when you can dominate the market and define professionalism so that no one tries to do any better? I worked on that crap from version 0.1 in 1981 until the late '80s and what I'm seeing in the Linux community now feels like we're going exactly the same way. Yeah, I know that's out of left field, but...never mind. You'll never get it. Yeah, it's different. Ever noticed Calculator, Notepad and Paintbrush aren't like the rest of Windoze? Strong central metaphor about how to use it leveraging everyday experience, ability to think about your work, not the tool, didactic GUI... That was me. People who don't really get what I'm talking about have accepted the Microshaft philosophy. And a thread is relevant until the bug is fixed. Groids.
