FFmpeg transcode video for Galaxy Blaze Samsung

[lindylex]

I'm trying to convert a video for my Galaxy Blaze Samsung using the following command.

ffmpeg -i o.mp4 -vcodec libx264 -crf 20 -threads 4 -flags +loop+mv4 -deblockalpha 0 -deblockbeta 0 -cmp 256 -partitions +parti4x4+parti8x8+partp4x4+partp8x8+partb8x8 -subq 7 -refs 5 -bf 0 -flags2 +mixed_refs-fastpskip -coder 0 -me_method full -me_range 16 -g 250 -keyint_min 25 -sc_threshold 40 -i_qfactor 0.71 -qmin 10 -qmax 51 -qdiff 4 -vsync 2 -acodec libfaac -ac 2 -ab 160k -vol 1280 -async 1 -f mp4 -vf "scale=800:428,pad=800:480:0:26:white" sample.mp4

It use to work and now it complains with the following error.

“Unknown encoder 'libfaac'
”

Hi
Change this:-

-acodec libfaac

To this:-

-acodec aac -strict experimental

and try again.

bat999, I love the internet and smart people like you on it. Your suggestion worked.

ffmpeg -i o.mp4 -vcodec libx264 -crf 20 -threads 4 -flags +loop+mv4 -deblockalpha 0 -deblockbeta 0 -cmp 256 -partitions +parti4x4+parti8x8+partp4x4+partp8x8+partb8x8 -subq 7 -refs 5 -bf 0 -flags2 +mixed_refs-fastpskip -coder 0 -me_method full -me_range 16 -g 250 -keyint_min 25 -sc_threshold 40 -i_qfactor 0.71 -qmin 10 -qmax 51 -qdiff 4 -vsync 2 -acodec aac -strict experimental -ac 2 -ab 160k -vol 1280 -async 1 -f mp4 -vf "scale=800:428,pad=800:480:0:26:white" sample.mp4

This is the command I used. Do you suggest a better command to create a video for this phone? This currently works and I would like to see if there is anything better.

Hi
I think some of the options in your command are obsolete.
Maybe you can tidy it up like this:-

ffmpeg -i o.mp4 -vcodec libx264 -crf 20 -preset medium -acodec aac -strict experimental -ab 160k -ar 44100 -ac 2 -vf "scale=800:428,pad=800:480:0:26:white" sample.mp4

I'm moving you to our video conversion section. ffmpegX is not ffmpeg. .
