Conversion failed!
So I could write a workaround, by adding '-bsf:v h264_mp4toannexb' to the ffmpeg muxing call whenever someone wants to muxliplex a H.264 stream into an .avi file, but since this is only needed if the input is broken in some way (remuxing H.264 mp4 files to mkv works fine here for all my samples) I do not plan to write a workaround for this. (Hybrid is not meant to try to cope with broken/malformed input files.)
You can try to remux your file with mkvtoolnix to mkv before processing it with Hybrid. (mkvtoolnix does some attempts to 'repair' files.)
