Hey there. Thanks for reporting this issue. Could you elaborate a bit more?
Thank you!
The audio plays but the video is black. However, if you watch for a little bit you'll occasional see a flicker of an actual frame of the video but it's justa split second here and there and then back to black. It also only shows black on the preview in the converter web interface.
I did a little more investigation and it appears to be related to firefox. Same file selected when using chromium comes out looking as it should. But on firefox it comes out as a black screen.
Which version of Firefox do you use? I'm on Firefox 119 on macOS 13.6 and have no problem with both videos you shared.
I'm on 118 on Linux.
Is the encoder web interface using ffmpeg on the backend? I'd probably prefer just processing videos locally but I'm not sure how to get ffmpeg or another tool to encode it correctly. The Crankplayer script works but the dithering isn't as good as some of the options on the web encoder.
No, the web interface is purely hand made JavaScript. But I'd love to have a command line tool to encode pdv
at some point. Not sure if it's possible to plug this into ffmpeg or if I'd rather straight away go to something in Node.
Regarding your issue, do you have any error in your DevTools console in Firefox?
I've tried a couple different videos from different sources and the resulting file just gives me a black screen.
