Converting video from Syma x5c camera to mp4 / iPhone compatible
Raw
gistfile1.txt
The pixel format from the camera is 422 ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YUV ). FFMpeg can convert it to the more standard 420.
Additionally, I've added faststart to enable the video to play from the web prior to downloading the entire file
ffmpeg -i /Volumes/Untitled/VIDEO/MOVI0004.avi -movflags faststart -pix_fmt yuv420p ~/Movies/MOVI0004.mp4
