MKV stops a few seconds before end

Post by Donnash »

While transcoding a (MKV) movie with the "Movie (primary) 1280x720" profile to my Panansonic tv the whole episode (in this case) plays but stops about a minute/30sec. before the end.

Anyone any idea how to fix this or why this happens?

And there's nothing in the log.

Hey Eugene,
Thanks for your reply.

Chuncked is turned on (if I turn this of it won't even connect).

When I FFWD to the part where it goes wrong it goes black and goes beyond the point where it previously did stop.
maybe it's in the "duration analysing" it says the total duration is 0:42:00 when watching it goes beyond 00:42:00 and after it does this it's the end of story :p

I think this belongs in the "general" section, it's because the video is 24 f/s and the codec is 23.97 f/s. This is causing the actual problem, setting this to 24 f/s plays the whole episode but after a while video starts moving out of synch, any ideas on this one?
