When asking for help here, never use -hide_banner unless
you want to report an issue with that option.

Please test current FFmpeg git head, if the issue is reproducible,
feel free to provide a sample file.

Since the file was apparently created with FFmpeg, the more
interesting issue is: How was the input file created?
