Ah, so you have an issue with windows, not with ffmpeg. ;-) (Actually Windows Media Player.) WMP has quite a few restrictions as to what it can play back, one of them is pixel formats. Your file has yuv420p10le, which is quite special (being 10 bits depth per channel). My guess would be that WMP can't handle this material (nor the more common yuv444p or such, if you happen to run across them). Try transcoding instead of copying one of those files, and specifying "-pix_fmt yuv420p" (if ffmpeg doesn't do that for you, e.g. because it wasn't compiled to handle 10 bit H.264). If that works in WMP, you have no choice but to recode those offending files with this option (and to continue to copy those where it happens to work).
