Error number 3 occurred / video decoder error: bad frame


Symptoms

If you get the message Error number 3 occurred or the message video decoder error: bad frame, then it is more likely that the video is defective.

The message can look like this in the workspace:

or like that in the notification history:


Verification

To verify if the video file is broken, a good way is to test it with ffplay.

Please download the latest FFmpeg release from https://ffmpeg.org/download.html and install/unzip it.

Open the bin folder and drag and drop the Video file on ffplay.exe

The video will start in fullscreen. Please press Alt + Tab to navigate to the console window.

If the video is broken, an error like that will show up when the broken frame is played back.


Solution

Please re-encode the video file again.
