#7304: Quicktime Player cannot trim H265 movie -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: GabrielZ | Type: defect Status: new | Priority: normal Component: | Version: undetermined | unspecified Keywords: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Reproduced by developer: 0 Analyzed by developer: 0 | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Summary of the bug: a movie that I converted using ffmpeg cannot be trimmed with Quicktime Player on Mac (macOS 10.13.5). It gives me the error message "operation cannot be completed". Playing the movie in QuickTime Player works fine.
How to reproduce: {{{ % ffmpeg -loglevel error -hide_banner -nostats -nostdin -i input -map 0 -c:s copy -map_metadata 0 -map_metadata:s:v 0:s:v -dn -map_metadata:s:a 0:s:a -c:a aac -b:a 128k -codec:v hevc -tag:v hvc1 -preset faster -crf 25 -profile:v main -x265-params "me=umh:subme=5:ref=4:aq-mode=2:aq- strength=1.0:psy-rd=2.0:psy-rdoq=1.0:rd=6:log-level=1" -f mp4 output ffmpeg version: N-91200-g1616b1be5a-tessus built on macOS 10.13.5 , built with Apple LLVM version 9.1.0 (clang-902.0.39.1) }}} An example, where clipping using Quicktime Player fails, can be found here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/jxg1n05smgxyvuq/Funny_Girl.mp4?dl=0 Just load the video in Quicktime Player, trim it anywhere, then try to save it. If you check the system log file, you will find only one error message "assertion failed: 17F77: libxpc.dylib + 75093" , but that seems unrelated to the problem here, because it occurs with other videos, too, where clipping works fine. I have other videos that I converted exactly the same way where clipping with QuickTime Player works fine. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.ffmpeg.org/ticket/7304> FFmpeg <https://ffmpeg.org> FFmpeg issue tracker _______________________________________________ FFmpeg-trac mailing list FFmpeg-trac@avcodec.org http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-trac
