Re: [Bug 1000973] Re: Mencoder error: Error, Invalid timestamp=1, last=1, encoding to mpeg4

 

I have run avconv on both systems 32 and 64 bit systems and they both work.
I might also say that LMDE 64 bit also fails on 64 bit.

While this is surely helpful indication, it is not sufficient to
understand what actually is going on. I'm still puzzled if this problem
is specific to mencoder, or does this need to be fixed on one of the
many libraries that mencoder links to (e.g., libavcodec).

(BTW, that's why I've asked if this also applies to other transcoding
tools, such as avconv).

Title:
  Mencoder error: Error, Invalid timestamp=1, last=1, encoding to mpeg4

Status in "mplayer" package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I have installed both the 32 bit and 64 bit U12.04 desktops and all is
  well except for mencoder on the 64 bit desktop I get an error :

  [mpeg4 @ 0x7f114895a300]Error, Invalid timestamp=1, last=1

  This happens on 64 bit only and works great on 32 bit.

  The resulting output file will not start playing, but if I skip past
  the first few seconds, it will play.

  I would like to keep using 64 bit but if I can't find a solution to
  this problem, I will have to go 32 bit.

  I have reproduced this error with several video files of various types
  and sources.

  Please help if you can.

  My commandline is :

  nice -n 10 /usr/bin/mencoder "$1" -o "$1".avi -ffourcc DX50 -vf
  softskip,dsize=4:3,scale=720:480,harddup -sws 10 -oac mp3lame
  -lameopts abr:br=140:aq=4:vol=2.2:mode=1 -ovc lavc -lavcopts
 
vcodec=mpeg4:vbitrate=1200:threads=2:vmax_b_frames=0:vme=4:mbd=1:lumi_mask=0
.05:dark_mask=0.01:naq:precmp=0:cmp=0:subcmp=0:\dia=1:last_pred=0:preme=0:qn
s=0:vlelim=-4:vcelim=9:autoaspect

  works on 32 bit but not 64 bit OS
