Comment (by ramitbhalla):

 That's what I said - mjpeg were identified as attachment in the Dec 21st
 build and everything was fine.
 Now its being identified as video which is causing everything to go nuts.

 Don't get me wrong, I love ffmpeg and think you guys are FAB. But I'm
 afraid of updating ffmpeg - I need to start testing over because one tiny
 change breaks everything.

 if mjpeg can't be transcoded into more standard video forms perhaps the
 earlier method of identifying it as attachment was the best strategy. This
 is just very complicated to figure out. How many conditions can I put to
 see what can and can't be converted? Why I loved ffmpeg is that it keep
 that stuff internal, I can stick to simple commands like vcodec and map
 without having to worry about the intricacies of the interoperability
 which ffmpeg takes care of beautifully.

 I don't understand why you decided to make mjpeg a video instead of
 attachment?
  I'm sorry but this is a deal breaker since everything has stopped working
 and I don't see any way around it.
