Without myself trying to take sides on this, one could argue: ffmpeg chooses not to create "illegal" files[1]. It is friendly enough to demux/decode those created by others though, allowing you to carry the data over. Why do you need to create the same/similar format that Sony and Canon do? Do you want the resulting MP4 to be read by a particular software? Why does the audio need to be copied losslessly? Why are the MOV or Matroska containers not alternatives? Moritz [1] Agreed it can in some other cases. _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-user mailing list [email protected] http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-user To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email [email protected] with subject "unsubscribe".
