However, if libavcodec can do lowres decoding on 4k it may work.
Can you test with lowres=10

Thanks, I tired and the failure is the same. Any chance in increasing the video buffers. :-)

Build 009 is release with video size up to 4000*2400 (although I can not test as I do not have such recordings)
Can you test?

Any news on 4k? USA broadcasters will be firing up ATSC 3.0 end of this year, so 4k h265 is coming...

I take it that 4K is not going to be added?

I would pledge $100.00 USD to get ATSC3.0 + 4k working. It really needs to be done.
