FFmpeg failed to concatenate

This error happens either when I encode with STV-AV1 or AOM

$ av1an -i "Slippery Climb.mp4" -o "slip_climb" -e svt-av1 -v "--preset 8 --keyint 240 --lp 0 --rc 0 --crf 25"

plz help, the original video is encoded with H.264 and the audio in it is AAC. I want to use the Matroska container, and I preffer to be using SVT-A1V.

FFmpeg version

SVT-AV1 version

SVT-AV1 v0.9.0-dirty (debug) SVT [version]: SVT-AV1 Decoder Lib v0.9.0-dirty

Av1an version

av1an 0.3.1

Well... installing mkvmerge fixed the problem.... It isn't an optional package tho? I don't get it. Still, the audio is AAC in the encoded file, I have to add a parameter I guess. Plz change "mkvmerge" from optional to Prerequisite, it confuses me (I'm new in this world of encoders, command lines & linux)

Update: Seeing that "opus" is an open standard, I guess that the examples on your README.md work without the need of "mkvmerge".

for ffmpeg concatenation (which is the default when mkvmerge isn't installed) you need to add a file extension at the end of the filename, like this av1an -i "Slippery Climb.mp4" -o "slip_climb.mkv" -e svt-av1 -v "--preset 8 --keyint 240 --lp 0 --rc 0 --crf 25" otherwise ffmpeg will fail to create the output file because the output file type isn't defined
