 Hi,

 When I tried to compress an uncompressed avi file with ffmpeg using the
 latest zeranoe exe it failed with this error: Error while opening encoder
 for output stream #0.0 - maybe incorrect parameters such as bit_rate,
 rate, width or height. However, the same command works with a two month
 old exe (also from zeranoe).

 The problem is obvious that in the older version this line appears:
 Incompatible pixel format 'bgr24' for codec 'libx264', auto-selecting
 format 'yuv420p'. While in the new version it doesn't consequently, the
 newer version tries to open libx264 with bgr24 which is incompatible with
 libx264. I'm not sure what other checks it misses in the new version.

 Full output below.

 Command:
 {{{
 C:\FFmpeg Video Converter - x64\data\ffmpeg.exe -i
 "D:\Logs\R43\CondD1\Trial1\DcondR43C1T1CamB.avi"  -profile high -vcodec
 libx264  -noy  -an -threads 0 "C:\Logs\DcondR43C1T1CamB.mp4"
 }}}

 Older exe output (working):
