I have a Mobile Media Player which support only MP4 and AVI files, which mean, I have to convert any MKV files (VoD) to MP4.
However, since the last upgrade of VLC two (?) weeks ago, I can not more convert anything!
I get always the error message
So an Internet search give me no answer, but some hints about a bug in ffmpeg.Automatic encoder selection failed for output stream #0:1.
Default encoder for format mp4 (codec none) is probably disabled.
Please choose an encoder manually.
Error selecting an encoder for stream 0:1
It seems, if an MKV files has a subtitle in it and if they are NOT "text", then ffmpeg fail to convert the file.
Now I have played with some parameters and options to remove the subtitles but failed.
Can someone tell me what additional OPTION I need to convert the MKV file to MP4 please?
Currently I use
ffmpeg -i ${INPUT_FILE}.mkv -map 0 -map_metadata -1 ${MISSING_SUBTITLE_REMOVE_OPTION} ${OUTPUT_FILE}.mp4
Thanks in avance
