Seems like your problem related to something like that:

inlife picture inlife on 3 Apr 2020

any way i can fix it? in the link there is no solution... can you please help me out as even a 6 sec video takes 250+ MB of space.. so mp4 conversion is quite necessary for me :)

Also, what settings did you provide for the encoder in your job json description?

Error initializing output stream 0:0 -- Error while opening encoder for output stream #0:0 - maybe incorrect parameters such as bit_rate, rate, width or height

The error seems to show inconsistencies with settings provided to FFmpeg. Could you show your current json definition for action?

@inlife can you please check and respond to me? :) i really want to use some help.

Update: I used FFMPEG (latest version and converted the file) and it converted without any error. may be the ffmpeg version packed has some issues?

Yep, seems to be the case. As an alternative you can try using handbrake. (An alternative encoder made by one of the members of our community)
