can't get it to work, no error message given

Hi!

I'd really like to use this frontend-tool to convert videos. At the moment, I have a bash-script that I run manually, which converts videos using ffmpeg (using several flags, including movflag '+faststart'). But: whatever input/output format I choose (and leaving additional ffmpeg flags completely empty, see screenshot), the conversion fails. Cronjobs are enabled and running fine. No error message is given :-(

See below for the code I run manually, which runs fine.

Steps to reproduce

Trying to add conversion batch
Define directory and formats
Click on "Save"

See Screenshot: grafik

Expected behaviour

conversion of media via ffmpeg

Actual behaviour

nothing :-(

this error message pops up: grafik

Are you using external storage, if yes which one: local for some directories

Are you using encryption: no
