Parsed_concat_1 @ 02ad98e0 Failed to configure out

Question

I am concatenating three videos using ffmpeg. However, for some reasons I am getting error.

I am using NReco Video Converter which is a FFMpeg C# wrapper .

Any help would be highly appreciated.

Below is my complete console output :

Answer 1

As you can see from the console output the issue is that the three inputs have different SAR values: 0:1 for the second input vs 40:33 for the first and third inputs.

You can set the corect SAR value using the setsar filter, eg:

 [1:v:0]setsar=sar=40/33[1v0sar]

then pass [1v0sar] to the concat filter along with the other video streams.
