Problem streaming (some) mp4s

Hello,

I was previously using Darwin Streaming Server, and am now migrating to FMS. For the DSS, I was converting all uploaded videos to hinted mp4s with ffmpeg. I find now that about 80% of my mp4s stream fine on fmls, but the remaining ones only play audio, leaving the video blank. What could this be? (I'm using rtmp://{addr}/vods/mp4:{name}.mp4 , and the "sample" player that came from the FMS download)

Thanks,

Nick

[Edit: All the videos, even the ones that don't play properly, pass "flvcheck" ]

Sure thing. Thanks for the help. Unfortunately, I'm brand new to these forums, and I'm a little stumped on how to get you the file. Is it possible to send a file on this site? For now, I'll pm you a download link.

Thanks for sendng me the mp4 file. I tried to play with VLC and it palys fine but FMS was unable to stream video properly at my end too. I found that video codec used was mp4v that is also well-supported by FMS, currently investigating and will update if I find something useful.
