    Sorry about that, and thanks for opening an issue @stacsk! At first, I thought this was simply your device not supporting the colour space in the original video for hardware encoding, but it seems that your chipset actually doesn't like that colour space at that specific resolution. I'll try and see if I can fix that for you!

    Oh, got it. Thanks very much. But I just wanna say, if it's an extremely specific issue that would require too much effort to fix, I could do without it. I already have my computer to do the compression stuff most of the time; so I'm okay if it's not fixed.

    This one fails too. I also noticed that (with both apps) the fail occurs on a lot of videos. Below this log is another video's log.

    AV1 (from HEVC) was failing similarly for me on 1.5.5. Tried the last apk you posted and it no longer fails.
