The VideoLAN Forums

I'm editing video, with lossless intermediaries. If I try to preview the utvideo coded version before I pass it through the expensive final encoding phase, with VLC, it tells me:
But as far as I can tell ( https://github.com/videolan/vlc/commit/ ... f89#L2L906 ) support was added last December; version 2.0.8 is much newer than that. Is this optional/bleeding edge/not in normal builds? Is something else going wrong?

Please upload a short sample of such video file to either http://streams.videolan.org/upload/ or to EmbedUpload.com, the latter will upload the file for you to several other hosts and then post the link to the file here.

If needed cut it with DGsplit and read here about how to do it:

50 MB max should be enough.

This commit is only on 2.1.0. Try 2.1.0-rc1

Thanks for the suggestion Jean-Baptiste. I tried 2.1.0-rc1, and it instead says:
These files were encoded by ffmpeg with "-vcodec utvideo". If I use ffmpeg to inspect it claims it is:
This test video ( https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/678 ... deo-ut.avi 15MB) also produces this error.

[utvideo @ 0x7f8728d1a760] Insufficient extradata size 0, should be at least 16

There might be an issue passing extradata. File a bugreport.
