Which produces a report that contains (in part): Repeated Fields: Neither: 360 Top: 0 Bottom: 0 (ffmpeg with the idet filter, sample 360 frames, blocking audio, using rawvideo format, send output to /dev/null, with input file HitchhikersGuide.mp4)

I use: $ ffmpeg -filter:v idet -frames:v 360 -an -f rawvideo -y /dev/null -i HitchhikersGuide.mp4 So clearly I'm not using ffmpeg correctly, or this is a bug.Ffmpeg can run in 'idet' (interlace detection) mode and gives a summary of frame types it finds in the file. Also, it should be noted that if I convert the mov file to mp4 in Adobe Media Encoder, the colors do not look washed out the way they do with ffmpeg. How do I convert this input MOV to an MP4 file without affecting the colors in ffmpeg? For reference, I am using ffmpeg version N-94150-g231d0c819f Copyright (c) 2000-2019 the FFmpeg developers.

I do not understand what I am doing wrong. Screenshots of several examples can be juxtaposed here (original on the right, output mp4 on the left): When I import the original MOV and the output MP4 into After Effects CC 2019, we can see the difference in the color quite easily. I end up with an video that is slightly different in color than the original (the color conversion wasn't performed properly by ffmpeg). Every time I attempt the following command:įfmpeg -i 'Abstract Blue and Orange Motion.mov' -pix_fmt yuv420p '111.mp4' I cannot for the life of me figure out what is going wrong, but I have a ProRes MOV file with the following specifications:Īnd I want to convert it to a 4:2:0 MP4 video file.
