[Movie] Valid : Yes [MPEG] Duration : 00:00:16 Movie complete : No [Video] Resolution : 640x480 Codec : MPEG 1 FPS : 24,00 BitRate : 102400 Kbps Quality Factor : 14,22 b/px [Audio] Codec : MPEG 1 Layer 2 Number of channels : 1 Sample Rate : 44100 Hz BitRate : 56 Kbps A other video that work correctly with FFMPEG : File Name : MOV09369.MPG File Size : 7,08 Mb. [Movie] Valid : Yes [MPEG] Duration : 00:00:20 Movie complete : No [Video] Resolution : 640x480 Codec : MPEG 1 FPS : 25,00 BitRate : 102400 Kbps Quality Factor : 13,65 b/px [Audio] Codec : MPEG 1 Layer 2 Number of channels : 1 Sample Rate : 32000 Hz BitRate : 40 Kbps So if i try : ffmpeg -i HPIM0503.MPG FFmpeg version SVN-r12430, Copyright (c) 2000-2008 Fabrice Bellard, et al. configuration: --enable-libamr-nb --enable-libamr-wb --enable-liba52 --enable-liba52bin --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libvorbis --enable-libfaad --enable-libfaadbin --enable-gpl --enable-nonfree --enable-liba52bin --enable-libxvid --enable-shared --enable-pthreads --enable-libfaac --enable-libx264 --prefix=/usr libavutil version: 49.6.0 libavcodec version: 51.51.0 libavformat version: 52.9.0 libavdevice version: 52.0.0 built on Mar 18 2008 15:00:59, gcc: 4.0.3 (Ubuntu 4.0.3-1ubuntu5) Input #0, mp3, from 'HPIM0503.MPG': Duration: 00:17:47.2, start: 0.000000, bitrate: 96 kb/s Stream #0.0: Audio: mp2, 44100 Hz, mono, 96 kb/s Must supply at least one output file There's no video stream ... This video work correctly everywhere, it comes from a digital camera : HP PhotoSmart R927. And the best it's that works on another installation of FFMPEG which I have on another server.
