Summary of the bug:
While encoding H.264 videos with ffmpeg in the past, i was able to play
the output video in the middle of the encoding, with the condition of
using the "mkv" or "ts" containers for that output, but with the last
ffmpeg versions this is not possible, so i have to wait until finishing
the encoding (this may take hours or days in my case) to play the
resulting video.
How to reproduce:
ffmpeg -i anyvideo -c:v libx264 -c:a copy output.mkv
Note:
Please try to play the output video with Potplayer or VLC.
