wrong file output?

Post by jelisaveta »

Description of problem or question:
Hi y'all.
I tried to use handbrake to convert a mov file to an mp4 and hopefully reduce it in size in the process. It is an 1.5 hour long, 10gb mov video. I waited an hour for handbrake to do its thing, but at the end all I got was a txt file (I think?). It is definitely not a video, and when I try to open it, quicktime told me "QuickTime Player cannot open files in the “data” format."
Obviously, I am out of my depth here. Please help :)



Steps to reproduce the problem (If Applicable):




HandBrake version (e.g., 1.0.0):




Operating system and version (e.g., Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, macOS 10.13 High Sierra, Windows 10 Creators Update):

You deleted the .mp4 extension from the file name, add it back and it will work.
