Ok, I have a feeling this might be a silly question, but I can't see what I am doing wrong. This is my command:
ffmpeg -i input.mov -c:v libx264 -profile:v baseline output.mp4
and the error it returns is: "Error while opening encoder for output stream #0.0 - maybe incorrect parameters such as bit_rate, rate, width or height"
I tried specifying the audio codec and using the other profiles, all to no avail... But the command works if I drop the -profile
Here is the log:

Any clue on what might be going on?
