MPEG4 ASP transcoding issues (--sout-ffmpeg-bframes)

[madRat]

Hi All,
I use VLC 0.8.6f on Windows XP SP2 and want to transcode file to MPEG4 ASP by vlc.
When I try to see transcoded file (by the same vlc) - decoding process logging warnings "header damaged, cannot decode one frame" and vlc ignores bad frames.
Another video players or ignore b-frames (and shows correct video with fps=12.5) or shows images with some trash (big squares with different color) on correct video.
If I disable b-frames (and use MPEG4 SP) - all works fine.

Could you confirm bug, or help me to transcode MPEG4 ASP correctly?

More detailed information
I retranscode stream with command:

Code: Select all

vlc.exe auto.avi --sout-ffmpeg-bframes 1 --sout=#transcode{vcodec=mp4v,venc=ffmpeg,fps=25,vb=300,width=320,height=240,acodec=mp3,samplerate=32000,channels=1,ab=48,threads=2}:standard{access=file,mux=mp4,dst=auto.mp4} vlc:quit

After decoding transcoded file vlc warnings about

Code: Select all

ffmpeg warning: header damaged (mpeg4@00B7A8C0) ffmpeg warning: cannot decode one frame (55 bytes) ffmpeg warning: header damaged (mpeg4@00B7A8C0) ffmpeg warning: cannot decode one frame (37 bytes) ffmpeg warning: header damaged (mpeg4@00B7A8C0) ffmpeg warning: cannot decode one frame (14 bytes) ffmpeg warning: header damaged (mpeg4@00B7A8C0) ffmpeg warning: cannot decode one frame (15 bytes) ffmpeg warning: header damaged (mpeg4@00B7A8C0) ffmpeg warning: cannot decode one frame (260 bytes) ffmpeg warning: header damaged (mpeg4@00B7A8C0) ffmpeg warning: cannot decode one frame (260 bytes)

Note: I try transcode on CentOS 5.1 (linux, vlc 0.8.6d) - the same problem.

Thanks in advance.

Hello All!
We are still unable to make VLC to transcode into MPEG4 ASP. Is there anybody who uses it here?
Is there anybody using "--sout-ffmpeg-bframes" comand line argument?
Any help or just comments would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks beforehand,
Sincerely,
