video_transcoding: transcoding failed
Hi Don,
It’s me again. 😉 I tried converting an MKV I ripped from a Blu-ray and it failed. See attached 2016_World_Series_Game_1_t02.mp4.log
% transcode-video --mp4 2016_World_Series_Game_1_t02.mkv
...
/Users/dave/.gem/ruby/2.3.0/bin/transcode-video: transcoding failed: 2016_World_Series_Game_1_t02.mkv
Here’s the MakeMKV screen shot, when I created the MKV:
What have I done wrong this time? 😃

I just tried the HandbrakeCLI v1.1.0 binary directly from handbrake.fr, and it works. So somehow the version getting built by
brewis busted.@donmelton Thanks again for your help!
I opened up Homebrew issue #28139: handbrake v1.1.0 installed via Homebrew crashes, but not the official binary installed from handbrake.fr
Perhaps try a nightly build of just the HandBrakeCLI? ( https://handbrake.fr/nightly.php )
By definition a nightly build is expected to be buggier than a regular release, but perhaps the specific bug that you’re being bitten by has been resolved either directly or indirectly.
Just thought it was worth a chime in from the peanut gallery. 😸
Yup! HandbrakeCLI is crashing: HandbrakeCLI-fail.txt
I did just upgrade to HandbrakeCLI version 1.1.0. I could try downgrading, to see if that helps.
Thanks for that MakeMKV tip! Maybe that’s causing problems, too.
Yup, that was the whole command. Attached: transcode-video-scan.txt
And here’s a MakeMKV screen shot showing that the source is indeed 720p:
FWIW, this is the Blu-ray: http://a.co/bC6jr8Q
Also, how do you get MakeMKV to convert DTS-HD to FLAC? I’m not seeing that option anywhere.
