I have a bunch of video files created by MKVToolnix that have a Codec ID like: V_MS/VFW/FOURCC / HEVC.
I tried to run this:
ffmpeg -i test.mkv -c copy test.avi
to turn it to avi and then this:
ffmpeg -fflags +genpts -i test.avi -c:v copy -c:a copy test2.mkv
to convert it back to mkv
Now the file has the correct Codec ID: V_MPEGH/ISO/HEVC
I need this because while test.mkv will not play on Kodi, test2.mkv will do.
Hence the question: can I do it in just one passage, i.e. force the fixing of the codec ID keeping all the streams and metadata of the original file?
Thanks to everyone,
Fabio
