Hello community,

since some days I experience errormessages in ffplay:
(ffplay version 4.2.4-1ubuntu0.1 )

The messages arise in chunks and while they arise video output is black. between the chunks, the video runs fine.

It only happens, when I play a video, which I edited before with ffmpeg's crop-filter :
-c:v libx264 -preset medium  -filter:v crop=iw-0-0:ih-72-74:0:72

The source video comes from a DVD (from what I created a concat-file with dvd2concat-script from ffmpeg-sources)

I do that to cut the black stripes on the top and at the bottom.
When I don't use the crop filter, the result video runs fine in ffplay.

The cropped video (which produces the error messages) runs fine in other players (vlc, parole). I also (for test) took it as input for another transcoding in ffmpeg -> no errors while processing (but again errors while playing this result)

So my question is: can I be sure, that the cropped videofile is without scaling faults and only the ffplay has a problem while playing? Or is the cropped video really erroneous because the crop filter makes mistakes and all other players are a bit more "scaling problems friendly".

I think this appeared since one of the last ubuntu updates, I can't remember such an effect in former times, but I use the crop filter since a long time now.

(And another strange effect in the last days is, that video playback runs in double speed for some seconds, when I switch the audio-channels with key A. I've never seen this before.)

Thank you, RockfordC64
