Error When Trying to Open a mp4 file in Siril 1.4.0

Software Siril
1

Hello! I recently installed Siril 1.4.0. When I tried for the first time to open a mp4 file I got the error message “Error Opening File”.

Until previous version (I think it was 1.2.0), Siril automatically converted the file do SER and created the sequence.

How to I work with mp4 files now with Siril?

Thank you very much!!
Best Regards,

Hello. Without having the file to test, I cannot say.

Hi Lock042,

I do not think this is a file related issue, as now I have the same error with a previous mp4 file that was converted to SER by Siril when I was running version 1.2.
Are you aware whether Siril 1.4.0 intentionally dropped the mp4 > SER convertion?


Anyway, I tried to upload here the mp4 file, hope this works.
Thank you very much for your attention!
Best Regards,
Fabio

No sorry, but we won’t try. MP4 are deprecated in Siril. Si this is not something we will improve.
