Got the file. The mdat audio is at the end which make it playable and as you say there is metadata present. I need to look some more but there are some video specific data - I wonder whether the metadata is tied to the video channel and not the audio channel. The command line you used is simple but good enough for most applications. It did not remove the video channel completely and if original metadata is on the video channel, then it will not have been mapped into the audio channel. Regarding ffmpeg - it is a swiss army knife and very useful but can often injure the user. A lot of options are very poorly documented for example look at "ffmpeg -help muxer=f4v" which relate to MPEG4 but could be used to override "brand" if that is the issue. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=109839 _______________________________________________ Squeezecenter mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
