MJPEG 422 render - black video - JonasHøholt - 2018-02-06

Hi Gunther,

Tried to render a 4K UHD MJPEG 422 from the LRT renderer. I exported 8 bit Tiff's from LR. I got the newest version 5.0.1

When playing the file i AE it only shows a black video frame https://www.flickr.com/photos/jonashoholt/40088673352/in/dateposted-public/

When playing in Windows Media player a weird multiple color flickr appears https://www.flickr.com/photos/jonashoholt/40121815111/in/dateposted-public/

When playing in VLC its only a black frame.

Tried rendering a MP4 420 from the same Tiff's and that seems to work fine.

Thought I'd let you know if you are able to fix it.

Hi Jonas,
thank you for reporting this. Indeed, the MJpeg is broken in the current version. I've managed to fix this and will release an update soon. If you need it urgently, let me know, then I'll send you a beta.
Generally however, if you're not forced to use MJpeg (because a client demands it) I'd recommend to use ProRes.
