Attract Mode crashes with some videos
Using Attract Mode with some videos (like this) make it crash.

Any solutions?
Hi,
Have you updated recently, or still on a vanilla install ? Are you using X or KMS ? Have you tried a different layout ?

Once installed, I updated the whole system to the latest packages. I tried both X and KMS, and different layouts: same result. Some videos start for 1 second or less and then the whole Attract Mode crashes. Using a screenshot or any kind of image it works.
Have you tried a different layout ? When have you updated ? Because there are updates "almost" everyday (but don't update yet if you have installed RA)

Yes, I tried different layouts. I installed it around a week ago, I updated the whole system the same day and then I updated yesterday. I have noticed this problem just yesterday since I haven't used videos before.

I just installed FFmpeg package but nothing's changed.
ffmpeg was already installed. I think it's a problem with either the ffmpeg lib, either some trouble in AM. Which is beyond my scope. Does it always happen on the same video ?

ffmpeg was not installed. It always happens with specific videos.
After installed ffmpeg the log now shows this after the crash:

Sorry! You're right. I saw the pacman log and ffmpeg was already installed. Why did the attract log change after reinstall ffmpeg?
This is all pacman.log entries for ffmpeg since I installed Groovyarcade:

Should I try to downgrade ffmpeg to 2:5.1.2 version?
you can't downgrade ffmpeg since AM+ was compiled against ffmpeg 6, so libs versions won't match and AM won't start.
if it happens with specific videos, the workaround for now would be to reencode them. I can't do much for AM code itself, even less regarding video decoding.

What about reinstalling Groovyarcade without update? Should it work? Can I install Groovyarcade and after that connect the Jamma board and the arcade monitor? Or should I install Groovyarcade with those connected? I don't have those available here now. I simply connected a LCD monitor now.
can't tell. Doing so you'd rollback to ffmpeg5. I have no idea if it would help or not. I just know there was no code change for AM to switch to ffmpeg 6 (unlike ffmpeg 4 -> 5)

What format should I convert the videos to? How should I do that?
I checked the video file codecs. On the left outrun.mp4 (which seems to work without issues), on the right outzone.mp4 (which makes Attract Mode crashes every time it play). The codecs seem the same... so... I'm more confused than before...
