Instead of using the old, deprecated method with these profiles file, a better solution would be to use the codec private options. See the output of avconv -help: [...] libx264 AVOptions: -preset <string> E.V.. Set the encoding preset (cf. x264 --fullhelp) -tune <string> E.V.. Tune the encoding params (cf. x264 --fullhelp) -profile <string> E.V.. Set profile restrictions (cf. x264 --fullhelp) [...] > If I remove the '-pre libx264-ipod320' part from the command line, then > avconv converts the video, but not with the parameters necessary for a low > powered device (i.e., Baseline Profile H.264). > > I don't have here symbols for libav (which means that gdb doesn't generate > any useful traceback), but upon using strace on avconv, this is what I get: The debug symbols are in the package libav-dbg. Without a proper stacktrace, it remains hard to reproduce and eventually fix the problem.
