I was having problems playing some mp4 files in windows on vlc and windows media player
General Complete name : D:\Embrient Video Project\EMBRIENT a7iv MAY 28\C0187.MP4 Format : XAVC Codec ID : XAVC (XAVC/mp42/iso2) File size : 1.53 GiB Duration : 45 s 45 ms Overall bit rate mode : Variable Overall bit rate : 292 Mb/s Frame rate : 29.970 FPS Video ID : 1 Format : AVC Format/Info : Advanced Video Codec Format profile : High 4:2:2 Intra@L5.1 Codec ID : avc1 Codec ID/Info : Advanced Video Coding Width : 3840 pixels Height : 2160 pixels Display aspect ratio : 16:9 Frame rate : 29.970 (30000/1001) FPS Chroma subsampling : 4:2:2 Bit depth : 10 bits Codec configuration box : avcC Audio ID : 2 Format : PCM Format settings : Big / Signed Codec ID : twos Bit rate mode : Constant Bit rate : 1 536 kb/s Channel(s) : 2 channels Sampling rate : 48.0 kHz Bit depth : 16 bits Other ID : 3 Type : meta Format : rtmd Codec ID : rtmd
I tried AJA and MPV / MPV.net and while both but both had clunky interfaces
I found smplayer uses mpv for playback but provides a usable interface.
The second problem is that windows will not generate thumbnails for these codecs natively, Icaros is the standard solution for thumbnails. I installed K-lite Codec Pack which includes Icaros.
