I have a gif file without an extention called loop.
the command avprobe loop returns:
[mp3 @ 0x7faa59004a00] Format detected only with low score of 1, misdetection possible!
avprobe subsequently incorrectly recognises the format as being mp3.
How can I force avprobe to recognise the file format?
avprobe -f gif loop returns:
Unknown input format: gif
but avprobe -formats | grep gif returns:
E gif GIF Animation

Why not add an extension? – slhck – 2014-11-27T13:51:21.000
The file is temporarily created by a ruby gem I'm using (paperclip). I'd rather not override the default gem especially as this should be possible according to the avprobe documentation. – Tom – 2014-11-27T15:46:51.603
