Small update: i also tried a conversion (encoding) with the “msvideo1” codec:
ffmpeg -i 20200804_MI08903TG40_5E3_BIN1_1_3_J2-4_F02.mp4 -b 5000k -strict -2 -codec:v msvideo1 final.avi
I also had a “UnsupportedCompressionException” for the import by OMERO.insight (5.5.17):
loci.formats.UnsupportedCompressionException: 1129730893 not supported
Here is the ffprobe output, if it can be of help:
$ ffprobe -v quiet -print_format json -show_format -show_streams -print_format json final_msvideo1.avi
