Works fine with vanilla WMP. (And I wonder which other application should be relevant for avi.) H.264 AVI does not work in Quicktime, Resolve, Premiere, etc. I would like to use MOV. Strange that this conversion works going to AVI, but not going to MP4 or MOV.
So if he is happy with the 2 stage process (or piping avi format out into a second ffmpeg instance stream copying back to mov) then it looks like he has a workflow. This piping would accomplish what I need, but I imagine it would be faster if ffmpeg could do it directly. I also noticed that while this conversion works to decrease the frame rate, it doesn’t work to increase it. For example, with a source video at 29.97, the following command produces a file at 29.97. $ ffmpeg -r 60 -i jason.mov -an -vcodec copy -f avi pipe: | ffmpeg -i pipe: -vcodec copy jason60.mov ffmpeg
