Hi all,
this time I would like to share a solution that hopefully might save you some time and headache.

I received tons of errors trying to convert my old .mov Quicktime videos taken with an early Olympus digital camera, stating that some audio codec parameters were not set correctly.
After some trying, I managed to convert those files on my pc with ffmpeg using the -ar 44100 parameter, which sets the audio sampling rate. Unfortunately this did not work in GSP.
I took me hours to figure out (shame on me - GSP-Blog reader know this!) that the order of the parameters is critical for ffmpeg. This did not work:

-i "{SourceFilePath}" -y "{DestinationFilePath}" -ar 44100

but this did:

-i "{SourceFilePath}" -ar 44100 -y "{DestinationFilePath}"

I used the latest ffmepg x64 binary from 11-21-2011.

All my .mov now are perfectly converted - a great feature!

Plus a big thumbs up for the new uploader. Thanks, Roger!

Hope this helps someone,

Best,
Markus
