Rodeo (one of the developers who I've been working with on this) asked me to send him a log that he could analyse (which I've done) but he believes this issue's fix might have been caught up in this bug fix for something else.

That is great to hear! Do you have a link to the fix, and what was the core of the issue?

I'm beyond thrilled to say that in the newly released v1.7.0 of Handbrake, this issue has been FIXED! The funny part? Despite my going back and forth with the devs on it and having sent them over 70GB of test footage, this seems to have been fixed by accident. Their lead dev had an idea what was up but hadn't gotten to it yet. However, in fixing another bug that was tangentially related, they seemed to have fixed this one too. I loaded up a clip that previously wouldn't open in Handbrake and it opened and transcoded perfectly. They asked me to send logs so they can see how it's been fixed but yeah, all good now! Happily using MagicYUV for all my YouTube projects going forward!

No, PMs are not possible yet :) It's a rather new forum engine, I think it's cool, but some features are obviously missing. They say it'll be added very soon. Use the contact form for now.

So, if there's a way to send PMs on this forum, it's super buried because I can't find it. :/ Balázs, I'll send you the Mega link via your contact form. Thanks!

Well, MagicYUV's a codec so any capture software that supports 3rd party codecs should be able to use it.

Any program that lets you use VFW codecs should work, as well.... I'm just not aware of any that are free. XD

I've had Adobe Media Encoder mentioned to me in other places too but when I go to download it, it says I'm getting a trial. Is it a free or paid product? Not interested in subscribing to Creative Cloud just to make files readable in something else.
