jp2k muxed into mov by FFmpeg can't be played by QuickTime

[Carl Eugen Hoyos]

(issue 2656)
incoming/jpeg2000_to_quicktime_unplayable/bbb_jp2_qt.mov can be decoded with FFmpeg (and played with MPlayer, ffplay shows a black window for me), remuxing the video with FFmpeg leads to a file that can be decoded with FFmpeg (and played with MPlayer, ffplay shows a black window), but the original file plays fine with QuickTime, the copy shows only a black window.

$ ffmpeg -i bbb_jp2_qt.mov -vcodec copy out.mov

[ami_stuff]

the same problem with attached j2k.mov file (less data to analize),

output from:

ffmpeg -i j2k.mov -vcodec copy j2k_ff.mov

is unplayable by qt (black window)

[ami_stuff]

What's interesting the output from:

ffmpeg -i test.bmp -strict -2 -vcodec j2k out.mov

decodes correctly in QT, the same remuxed file:

ffmpeg -i out.mov -vcodec copy -strict -2 out2.mov

but libopenjpeg's output fails (black window):

ffmpeg -i test.bmp -vcodec libopenjpeg out.mov

[Elon Musk]

This still happens? Why?

[ami_stuff]

Replying to ami_stuff:

What's interesting the output from:

ffmpeg -i test.bmp -strict -2 -vcodec j2k out.mov

decodes correctly in QT, the same remuxed file:

ffmpeg -i out.mov -vcodec copy -strict -2 out2.mov

but libopenjpeg's output fails (black window):

ffmpeg -i test.bmp -vcodec libopenjpeg out.mov

hmm currently quicktime doesn't like neither of this - black screen with everything

[emcodem]

No Black screen anymore using recent version, can i just close such old tickets that are not reproduceable anymore and years old?

[Balling]

Reproduceable here. It also prints this:

[mov,mp4,m4a,3gp,3g2,mj2 @ 00000274800ade80] Packet corrupt (stream = 0, dts = 31).
bbb_jp2_qt_cut.mov: corrupt input packet in stream 0

The problem here is that windows QuickTime does not even play original file. So is VLC. Only MPC that is using ffmpeg can present the file.

[Carl Eugen Hoyos]

Still reproducible with current FFmpeg git head.
