[GEM-dev] mpeg4 header damaged

[Johnny Mauser]

Maybe try to encode in a totally different format and container (and back
if you desperatly need mp4 - is it playing other mp4 files?). I have made
good experiences with adobes media encoder. And to check files "media info"
can be quite informative.

Best,

Johnny
