Zoom Inc. Zoom Video Conferencing - Video data lost on conversion from .zoom to .mp4?

Question

Dear zoom expertsI recorded locally a zoom webinar about 2 hour long, obtaning two .zoom files weighing almost 2 Go, which seems quite normal. However, when I use the zoom software to convert these files to mp4, no error is reported, but my files are reduced to a sheer 100 Mo. And when I play them, I can only hear the audio track. The video has vanished, and only a black screen is displayed. I do not find any other software that would allow me to import the .zoom files to try to repair them.I would be very grateful to anyone giving me a hint to fix this issue.Best regardsPS : the files (before and after conversion) are available on this repository

Accepted Answer

There can be several reasons why the video disappeared after converting to mp4 and only the audio track is left. Some possible solutions you can try are:check the conversion software settings to make sure the video options are set correctly. Make sure the video quality and resolution are high enough to keep the video in the mp4 file.make sure that the original video has not been corrupted during recording. You may want to try playing the original video in the Zoom software to see if the video plays back correctly.Try another file conversion option. The Zoom software has a feature to convert the .zoom files to .mp4 files, but there are other free or paid tools that can perform such conversion. Some of these tools are: Handbrake, FFmpeg, VLC Media Player, Adobe Premiere Pro, Wondershare UniConverter, Movavi Video Converter, etc.
