Hi,
I have IP camera from Zintronic. I'm using following software to download video. I can download their .H265 and then convert it to mp4. But it is not possible to open the those mp4 files in avidemux. It just crashes and stops working. Is it possible to work with those files?
It is possible to watch the mp4 files in VLC and to put them on youtube. But it is not working with avidemux or DaVinci resolve
Video: HVC1 2560x1440 9.707fps 466kbps [V: English [eng] (hevc main L5.1, yuv420p, 2560x1440, 466 kb/s)]
Audio: AAC 8000Hz mono 13kbps [A: English [eng] (aac lc, 8000 Hz, mono, 13 kb/s)]
Have you verified that the crash persists with the latest available 2.8.2 nightly build (https://avidemux.org/nightly/) for your platform?
If it does, please provide a sample via WeTransfer (no account or even email address required despite the website trying to suggest otherwise), Mega, Dropbox or Google Drive.
Meanwhile i found handbrake converter - files converted there can be finally edited with avidemux.
I have 2.8.1 version and I will try newest one tomorrow.

Thank you for the sample. It is broken in the sense that the camera has swapped width and height at the container level. I've added a quirk to the MP4 demuxer in Avidemux to obtain these data from the HEVC extradata and give them precedence over info stored in the container. Future nightlies will be able to handle broken videos like this one. The proper solution would be to return the defective device to manufacturer.
The quirk is specific for HEVC.
That sounds really frustrating! I've had similar problems with video files from less common camera brands—sometimes software just can't handle their formats well. Since I also run into compatibility issues now and then, I try alternative tools for converting or handling files first. For quick and simple conversions, I often use Monkey Mart (https://monkeymart.lol); it's surprisingly good at dealing with tricky file types before editing them elsewhere. Hope you find a solution soon!
That sounds frustrating! I once had similar trouble trying to edit video files from a lesser-known camera brand. The file formats can sometimes cause compatibility issues with certain editors like avidemux. When I couldn't get help from forums, I tried discussing with others on Omegle (https://omegleweb.io), and surprisingly, I found someone who had fixed the same issue. You might get lucky talking to other tech enthusiasts there—it's worth a shot!
