when i use the sample file video.mpg inside http://freemxf.org/mxfgui.zip the mxf file gets created successfully. but when i compressed another video compressed using ffmpeg

Quote:

Output OP = OP1a
ERROR: Could not identify the essence in file "C:\Documents and Settings\Ramprasad\My Documents\Downloads\mxf\test.mpg"

test.mpg is actually the same as video.mpg, I decoded and re-encoded using ffmpeg. (ffmpeg -i video.mpg test1.mpg)

I compared the properties of the test.mpg and video.mpg using mediainfo. video.mpg is in main profile and it is in "MPEG video" format while test.mpg is in "MPEG PS" format and i did not find the profile information. other than these differences all the rest were alike.

I would like to know how video.mpg was made. what settings and which encoder was used, so that i can put my video in mxf
Thank you

"MPEG PS" Means an MPEG Program Stream.

MXFLib only supports wrapping MPEG Elementary Stream video.
