Every time I run a file.



HandBrake version (e.g., 1.0.0):
1.8.2 (2024081000)



Operating system and version (e.g., Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, macOS 10.13 High Sierra, Windows 10 Creators Update):
macOS 14.6.1 (23G93)

Nope, that's a perfectly normal MP4 file.

My guess is you've got your system file associations set to open MP4 with ClipChamp. You can open an Mp4 with whatever you want that supports it. Should be options on the macOS right click menu to open with other apps.

I changed associations. Yes, it was set for Clipchamp. For some reason...
Thanks.
