Hey there,

Thank you for reaching out, and letting us know about your inquiry. Can you please share your Run ID, so that the team can investigate it in detail?

Best

For example, this one: https://console.apify.com/view/runs/lFpxhRbn3KhT5eTH9

Create another issue to share it w/ you: https://console.apify.com/organization/j2UIRlHmbbfbBPhPG/actors/9EwE2S3mGpxx665jw/issues/HAl0VuKLBJGehwfVB

Had around 10 cases alredy

These are a few other runs (do you have access to their logs or I need to share them the same way as above?):

Here is one of corrupted video files (doesn't let me uploading here):

Here is another one - https://console.apify.com/organization/j2UIRlHmbbfbBPhPG/actors/runs/EAArEX0ATsIqv8Sya#log

There it started downloading, but still stopped on the way.

If you are unable to download the video, you need to fail the run (and not have it as 'succeeded') at least, so that we know we need to retry. But ideally you need to retry, so that we always get a video.

Hey,

When we checked the runIDs you provided, we saw that both the Input and Storage files had been deleted, so we couldn’t investigate the issue based on your specific example.

However, we tested the video found in the logs — https://www.tiktok.com/@caregiveraction/video/7437207906296302894 — by scraping it through the actor and running a conversion. We didn’t encounter any issues during this process.

You can find the run we executed, along with the input and the conversion log, at the link below:

Let us know if you still encounter the issue with a different video or setup, and we’ll be happy to dig deeper.

Yes, storage files are deleted automatically to save on space. Hence I attached the file in this issue for you to investigate. Why this issue was closed if you had all the input needed?

Yes, we continue encountering this as it hasn't fixed yet..

Here are the new runs:

fhzSmcJ9RjufvEVuw
pBGc41oWgdXMAUp0N
908G0QLjWFE4PfrLn
w3gLQrVe3w1uTG8gx

We didn’t encounter any issues during this process.

Yes, because it doesn't happen in 100% of cases. It happens on every ~8th run. So 15% of our data is corrupted. Which is a lot.

You can clearly see in the logs that the download wasn't fully finished. We gave you a concrete file that is corrupted. We also provided logs of ffmpeg for your developers to debug. I believe we did more than enough for you to be able to reproduce it.

Hey,

We are woking on it.

Best,
