Description of your issue, suggested solution and other information

Hello,

I have a personal php script that allows me to download the youtube videos of my choice. I'm looking to get the video in the best possible format, in mp4. I noticed today that it doesn't work for a video.

My server is running under debian 9, latest version of youtube-dl and ffmpeg.

Thank you

[dstftw]

Outdated ffmpeg.

[luckydonald]

I freshly installed it from homebrew and having the same issue @dstftw
Edit: Seems to be ffmpeg 4.1.2.

[luckydonald]

Even

brew install ffmpeg --HEAD --fetch-HEAD --build-from-source

didn't fix it for me (macOS Mojave)

Which version of ffmpeg do I need?

[1vasari]

No idea if this helps but I was getting this error when doing youtube-dl -f bestvideo+bestaudio --merge-output-format mp4 "<url>". Changing the --merge-output-format option to mkv worked.

This was on Mojave, latest youtube-dl and latest ffmepg, installed through Homebrew.

[bearstampede]

I am also getting this error when using the "default" profile, and after a lot of troubleshooting (and no changes in ffmpeg/python/youtube-dl versions), I was able to recreate and narrow down the issue. TL;DR--try disabling both "Embed thumbnail in audio file" and "Add metadata to file".

With both options enabled, I got the following result and 0 files downloaded:

With only "Add metadata to file" enabled, I got the following result and some files (47/999) downloaded. The "Requested formats are incompatible for merge" warning showed up 41 times, so I only included the warning once to keep it as concise as possible.

This is the video that ultimately killed the job:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uf8QlLF2fIM

I tried re-running that video by itself but received the same error. Out of curiosity, I changed the profile from [default] to [mp4], re-enabled the problematic options--and got a different error complaining about AtomicParsley:

Ultimately, the files downloaded in every case, but these errors cause the entire job to grind to a halt. There are also leftover "duplicate" .mp4 files whose filesize is 0 bytes (generated for an operation that was unable to be completed?).

Hopefully this is helpful rather than annoying; I don't post too often so I'm unsure if this is the right way to go about it. I just wanted to share my own findings with this specific issue.
