The input videos are the exact same format. I can't be any clearer about how nothing has changed here except that FFMPEG has quit encoding video totally randomly.  And for some reason it does not offer any meaningful output to help diagnose the problem. Is there a log or something I should be looking at they give some kind of reasonable output to troubleshoot this?
