Converted .mov to .mp4 won't play in some players and devices [on hold]

I convert a .mov file to .mp4 using the following ffmpeg command on Ubuntu:

ffmpeg -i infile.mov -vcodec h264 -acodec aac -strict -2 outx3.mp4

I was able to play outx3.mp4 on Ubuntu.

However, only has sound and no video on Firefox in Ubuntu, Windows 10 using "Movie & TV" player, or QuickTime on macOS, or on iOS.

What was the cause?

Mar 12 at 19:24

To their credit the OP is using Ubuntu, and the issue is more due to the usage of ffmpeg creating a widely non-compatible output, so it is not particularly a Windows issue and off-topic closers did not consider this. Problem is the pixel format. Need to add -vf format=yuv420p to the command. Remove -strict -2: that was only needed by old versions years ago.

I convert a .mov file to .mp4 using the following ffmpeg command on Ubuntu:

ffmpeg -i infile.mov -vcodec h264 -acodec aac -strict -2 outx3.mp4

I was able to play outx3.mp4 on Ubuntu.

However, only has sound and no video on Firefox in Ubuntu, Windows 10 using "Movie & TV" player, or QuickTime on macOS, or on iOS.

What was the cause?

Your Windows installation lacks the video codec for your file. Try to convert it (with ffmpeg) using another video codec or install an h264 codec in Windows.

This a question about Windows.

Mar 12 at 19:24

To their credit the OP is using Ubuntu, and the issue is more due to the usage of ffmpeg creating a widely non-compatible output, so it is not particularly a Windows issue and off-topic closers did not consider this. Problem is the pixel format. Need to add -vf format=yuv420p to the command. Remove -strict -2: that was only needed by old versions years ago.
