I have a lossless h264 file that I need to split some segments out of. My workflow strategy was to use SolveigMM to do this.
It's encoded as lossless h264 (High 4:4:4, 8-bit i420).
Encoding:
x264 --preset veryslow --qp 0 --no-deblock --profile high444 --sync-lookahead 12 --no-psy --sar 1:1 --qpfile GENERATED_QP_FILE --non-deterministic --range tv --colormatrix bt709 --demuxer raw --input-res 720x480 --input-csp i420 --input-range tv --input-depth 8 --fps 24000/1001 --output-depth 8 --output "C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\Temp\file.264"
Resulting file:

It displays fine in VirtualDub, VLC Player, etc.
But SolveigMM apparently can't handle it:
Any way around this block?
