I answered your question. Did you miss it? Scroll to the bottom of my
previous message.

1.2.4 does not contain libavcodec/g2meet.c, so I assumed it is too old
to decode your input. However, I may be incorrect and I did not test
this time.

It would have been most useful if you would have supplied the input if
this was possible for you to do.

In your case the message could be better (if I am correct in assuming
that g2m decoding is not possible with 1.2.4), but your point may be
somewhat moot if recent ffmpeg works as expected.

Please do not top-post on this mailing list.
