Dave, As others have suggested, you've not really provided enough information to properly diagnose this, but I'm also pretty sure this is a Windows problem, and one that I've seen recently with other video editing software. Are you using a recent build of Windows 10? If so, you're possibly running into an issue with Windows "Protected Folders", where "suspicious" applications (i.e. basically ones not written or signed by Microsoft) are denied write permissions to folders containing user data. This is presumably to guard against ransomware encrypting users' files. Search for Protected Folders in Settings - you should be able to find recently blocked programs and add ffmpeg to the list of permitted applications. I only know this because my son recently had this same issue with video editing software on his laptop. Next time you need to ask for help, though, please follow the pointers given by others and include the command line you're using along with full, uncut console output from ffmpeg (copied as text, not a screenshot). -- ============================================================== Rodney Baker VK5ZTV rodney.ba...@iinet.net.au CCNA #CSCO12880208 ============================================================== _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-user mailing list ffmpeg-user@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-user To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-user-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
