I am trying to play yuv file using ffplay.
 
However, ffplay cannot play yuv file right now.
 
Even if I give all the parameters required to yuv file, it just won't play saying (two lines of) "Picture size 0x0 is invalid", and "could not find codec parameters."
 
I will tell you what exact command and parameters I used and full error messages below:
 
 
Here is the steps I used:
 
1. go to ftp://ftp.tnt.uni-hannover.de/pub/svc/testsequences/ and download FOREMAN_352x288_30_orig_01_yuv.zip (and unzip it to get yuv)
 
2. Command: ffplay -f rawvideo -pix_fmt yuv420p -s 352x288 -i FOREMAN_352x288_30_orig_01.yuv
 
 
Then I get this error message:

C:\Users\SHH\Desktop>ffplay -f rawvideo -pix_fmt yuv420p -s 352x288 -i FOREMAN_352x288_30_orig_01.yuv

I tried BOTH windows and linux builds, and both of them have same problems.
 
Can anyone help me with this problem?
