I have been using Debut by NCH Software to record programs on my Mac. Until this week I had no problem with MCEBuddy processing these files. Up until now I was using the Debut Virtual Audio Device to record the audio but it has stopped working as of this week. I switched to Loopback by Rogue Amoeba to record the audio. The original MP4 file plays well but MCEBuddy 2.6 abandons the task of processing part way through. I was able to process a very short recording of 2 minutes using Debut & Loopback but the longer programs fail. I can attach the log files if necessary.
The final portion of the log for the failed attempt is below. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
