Hi All,
About a year ago I transferred all my files to a new drive. I used filzezilla which did mostly ok-ish, but I didn’t notice that some of the video files were corrupted. Random files will have a green tinge to them (like someone put a green filter over the lens).
It seems random, although if it’s a series it’s usually the whole series.
I’ve been replacing them as they come up, but I was wondering if anyone had any bright ideas to expedite the process.
Thanks for any help!
I’m not seeing color space, but there’s a bit depth of 8 and some schroma info. Also I’m seeing a codec: MPEG4 and a CodecID: XVID
That’s a very old video format, which is definitely not HDR.
Some GPUs support the MPEG4 codec maybe try updating the driver. Did you try turning on or off Hardware acceleration for the transcodig?
lol, just made the top level comment to say thank you. You nailed it! I may fool around with Tdarr to optimize my library. I’m working on my backup setup, so I’ll use Tdarr on a limited duplicate, but will also keep a full original. I’ve been slowly saving and getting hardware for two fully redundant systems on fiber. Overkill for plex, but I’ve been working to start archiving different family media, and don’t want to become family historian without offsite backups. I’m almost there and there should be enough space to “test drive” the conversion of the plex library without screwing anything up.
