Hi there
I have 11 MP4 video files, and 2 of them cannot be linked. When I open up the files in VLC and check the codec details, they all look the same, so I don't understand what is the difference with those 2. I will attach the codec details screenshot below. Any help would be much appreciated.
PS. I'm using MC 2020.4 on OS X 10.15.4
Thanks
Marc
In Media Composer open the Consule under Tools and then try the link and see what messages the console produces and post back.
Is the problematic file small enough to WeTransfer? happy to look at it.

Hi Pat
Thanks for checking this out. See the console text below. I'll also paste the WeTransfer link for you.

Ok downloading now.
In the input source browser have you tried forcing the link to UME?
On my PC system (with QT installed) running 2020.4 I can link via UME or Quicktime and both work fine.
Strange. I've tried forcing the link to Quicktime and UME, but neither work.
Path or filename issues?
Try renaming them to a simple filename like File1.MP4 and at a simple folder name off the root of a drive.
Then try linking again.
Its odd they work on a PC but not a Mac.
Still won't link, even when I move the files and give them a simple filename.
I have the same issue.
I'm going to downgrade to Mojave because I have a lot of troubles with 2020.4.
My audio interface U-PHORIA UMC202HD it's not working. I need listen the audio from headphones jack
Other problem is Export / Output to file.... I did some presets and It never do what they do.
If I'd like to export an mxf. It export an aaf and somethings like that. I don't understand why I need choose PAL image to export a DNxHD HQ.
Spects.

You have created new users settings I hope?
I did create new user settings when upgrading to 2020.4, and I have again now, but I still have the same issue.
