I am trying to convert various file types to mp4 to be displayed using ffmpeg, but i keep getting the error:
Error while opening encoder for output stream #0.0 - maybe incorrect parameters such as bit_rate, rate, width or height
Another piece that looks important is:
[libx264 @ 0x93caef0] broken ffmpeg default settings detected
[libx264 @ 0x93caef0] use an encoding preset (e.g. -vpre medium)
[libx264 @ 0x93caef0] preset usage: -vpre -vpre
[libx264 @ 0x93caef0] speed presets are listed in x264 --help
[libx264 @ 0x93caef0] profile is optional; x264 defaults to high
The latest code I am running is:
ffmpeg -i source -s 320x240 -r 30000/1001 -b 200k -bt 240k -vcodec libx264 -coder 0 -bf 0 -refs 1 -flags2 -wpred-dct8x8 -level 30 -maxrate 10M -bufsize 10M -acodec libfaac -ac 2 -ar 48000 -ab 192k destination
I have seen a few other people with this issue, but their fixes didn't work for some reason.
In case it matters: ultimately this will be used in php, though I am trying to get it working first via putty
EDIT:: Here is the full thing as requested(using a wmv, have tested wmv and flv):
~ >> ffmpeg -i path.wmv -s 320x240 -r 30000/1001 -b 200k -r 29.97 -bt 240k -vcodec libx264 -coder 0 -bf 0 -refs 1 -flags2 -wpred-dct8x8 -level 30 -maxrate 10M -bufsize 10M -acodec libfaac -ac 2 -ar 48000 -ab 192k path.mp4
