Re: ffmpeg incorrectly assumes width to be odd, when it is even - [libx264 @ 0xe302cd0]width or height not divisible by 2

Hi Reuben,

Thanks for replying. To clarify further, this ffmpeg command is part of an automated script that handles a variety of user uploaded video formats. It worked fine for all videos except for this particular instance where it was breaking and I was investigating why.

Also, regarding your comment about the version, there's been a bit of back and forth between my hosting company and I and they have said that they have installed the latest version of ffmpeg. Running ffmpeg from the command line shows the following, is there any strong reason to believe otherwise?

I dont understand the 'FFmpeg version %{evr}' - can I check the version number elsewhere?
