Tried to generate an album with video created from my iPhone 16 pro max and i'm getting errors. tried attaching the vid but apparently 60 megs is too big

The following files could not be processed due to errors:
IMG_9017.MOV: java.io.IOException: Error during video creation. Please review video settings.
ffmpeg process terminated abnormally with code 1:
Error opening filters!

From the console I get

manually updating ffmpeg.exe to C:\Users[username]\AppData\Roaming\JAlbum\bin did the trick

(source: https://www.gyan.dev/ffmpeg/builds/ )

The original file was dated 2016-06-21 which is more than a little old!

Access denied. Upload it to a regular web host, not to Google Drive or DropBox.

Video processes fine with the standard jAlbum distribution of ffmpeg.exe, which is dated Oct. 4, 2020.

The trick is that, because of licensing issues, jAlbum can't include ffmpeg.exe in the bundled software. It's kept in your config directory. When jAlbum launches, if it finds that executable missing, it downloads it from the jAlbum site (the licensing is very convoluted).

So, you can either find the latest and greatest on your own, or just delete the version that's sitting in your config directory, launch jAlbum, add a video, and let it grab the version of ffmpeg.exe that jAlbum is currently distributing.

Oh, just give the Cretins of Cupertino™ a little time. I'm sure they can come up with a video format that no third-party software can decipher.
