[FFmpeg-user] MP4Box can't mux ffmpeg x264 output: "IsoMedia File is truncated"

[sean darcy]

Using yesterday's git, I'm trying to make an android playable mp4.

Here's the script full-level3-nero-mp4box:

INPUT=total.file
ffmpeg -i $INPUT -an -pass 1  -vcodec libx264 -level 30 -vpre 
slower_firstpass     \
        -bufsize 10000000 -maxrate 10000000 -b 10000000 -threads 0 -f 
mp4 -y /dev/null
ffmpeg -i $INPUT -an -pass 2  -vcodec libx264 -level 30 -vpre slower 
-timestamp now \
        -bufsize 10000000 -maxrate 10000000 -b 10000000 -threads 0 $1.m4v

ffmpeg -i $INPUT -vn -acodec copy -f wav - | neroAacEnc -q 0.3 
-ignorelength  -if -  -of $1.m4a
MP4Box -fps 29.97 -add $1.m4v -add $1.m4a          -new           $1.mp4

I'm using MP4Box from this week:

MP4Box -version
MP4Box - GPAC version 0.4.6-DEV-rev2812M


The command ./full-level3-nero-mp4box full-test runs fine until:

+ MP4Box -fps 29.97 -add full-test.m4v -add full-test.m4a -new full-test.mp4
[iso file] Incomplete box ..5.
[iso file] Incomplete box ..5.

MP4Box thinks full-test.m4a is fine but not m4v:

MP4Box -info full-test.m4v
[iso file] Incomplete box ..5.
[iso file] Incomplete box ..5.
Truncated file - missing 1219279998 bytes
Error opening file full-test.m4v: IsoMedia File is truncated

FWIW:

Is this related to the odd tbn and tbr in full-test.m4v? From an earlier 
thread, I thought that didn't matter.

But if not that, what is causing the failure?
