4 years ago @SearchwareSolutions Thank you for using my tools. I'm glad they've been working well for you.
One problem is that you're placing the --mp4 option after the input filename. That won't work. All options must precede the input filenames.
Also, there's no need to issue four separate commands. The other-transcode tool can accept multiple inputs. So you could simply do this:
other-transcode --mp4 title_00.mkv title_01.mkv title_02.mkv title_03.mkvDoes that help?

I have been using other-transcode very successfully since you made it available. Unfortunately, just starting a few hours ago, it is failing with "Scanning media failed" errors.
In general, I transcode four videos at a time, all of them originating from MakeMKV. I generally put together a string of commands such as:
$other-transcode title_00.mkv --mp4; other-transcode title_01.mkv --mp4; other-transcode title_02.mkv --mp4; other-transcode title_03.mkvThis has worked very well up until now. This morning, however, when I issued this string of commands, the tool worked for the first two files, but the last two resulted in the "Scanning media failed" errors. I went back and retried the first file (exact same source file) and it too resulted in the "Scanning media failed" error.
I ran the tool in debug mode and here is the output for one of the files:
