Please include the complete ffmpeg console output, and any input samples
that are required for others to attempt to duplicate the issue. Note

I noticed that you sent your message to ffmpeg-user at mplayerhq.hu. Where
did you find this at? This is an old address, and although it still
works (for now) the current address is ffmpeg-user at ffmpeg.org.
