MP4 To M2TS HWplayer playback issue !

[ToiletDuck]

No clue why this happens for you.
Can't reproduce it, can't help.
Sorry.

well, lets recap...  we both used the same sample, same settings..

The debug logs from both of us are pretty much the same .. EXCEPT for THIS line ↓ ...🤔

Yours logged the following:

• mkvmerge --ui-language en -o "C:\Users\Selur\Desktop\2024-10-01@18_23_07_3610__09.mkv" -d 0 --default-track 0:yes --color-matrix-coefficients 0:6 --color-range 0:1 --color-transfer-characteristics 0:1 --color-primaries 0:5 --default-duration "0:50/1fps" --aspect-ratio-factor 0:64/45 --fourcc 0:MP4V --no-chapters --compression -1:none --forced-track 0:yes --field-order 0:0 --no-audio --no-subtitles "C:\Users\Selur\Desktop\2024-10-01@18_23_07_3610_05.264"

→ Color matrix coefficients = 0:6 


Whereas my log say : 

C:\Program Files\Hybrid\64bit\mkvmerge.exe
2024.10.02 - 19:52:31_Windows 11 Version 23H2 (64bit)_2024.06.16.1 - level 9:  argumentString(1): --ui-language en -o "C:\TEMP\2024-10-02@19_52_24_3410__05.mkv" -d 0 --default-track 0:yes --color-matrix-coefficients 0:-1 --color-range 0:-1 --color-transfer-characteristics 0:1 --color-primaries 0:5 --default-duration "0:50/1fps" --aspect-ratio-factor 0:64/45 --fourcc 0:MP4V --no-chapters --compression -1:none --forced-track 0:yes --field-order 0:0 --no-audio --no-subtitles "C:\TEMP\2024-10-02@19_52_24_3410_03.264"

→ --color-matrix-coefficients 0:-1


So, lo and behold what the error reveals highlighted RED ↓  

MkvMerge output: Error: Color matrix coefficients parameter: not given in the form <TID>:n (argument was '0:-1').
2024.10.02 - 19:52:31_Windows 11 Version 23H2 (64bit)_2024.06.16.1 - level 9: 2024-10-02@19_52_24_3410_05_muxing ### C:\TEMP\sample.mp4 ### Error: Color matrix coefficients parameter: not given in the form <TID>:n (argument was '0:-1').
2024.10.02 - 19:52:31_Windows 11 Version 23H2 (64bit)_2024.06.16.1 - level 9: aborting,.. 2024-10-02@19_52_24_3410_05_muxing

(argument was '0:-1') !!

There lies the problem me thinks ... 

Same sample, same settings yet different outcome .. 

Anyway it's not a big deal for me, usually i don't use mp4 as a container anyway, mostly it's mkv, ts, m2ts... vob..
