I have recently started to capture some old home VHS tapes from the early 90s... Its really like falling down the rabbit hole like Alice did. Since most of my googling takes me to this forum, I have now gathered the courage to ask a question myself.

I have been using StaxRip to deinterlace with QTGMC, and it is very impressive. I want the result to be viewed on a standard iOS device, and hence I am using the x264 encoder in a MP4 container.

But the MP4 file from StaxRip does not work in iOS (in the safari browser). Does anyone know why? If I run the MP4 file through Handbrake after, it works.

Thanks again for all the valuable information gathered in this forum over the years.
