    I've had this weird issue while trying to render 360 degree videos using the replay mod.
    If I choose equirectangular rendering and try to render a video it basically renders about 5 frames and then just stops, in the beginning it played the "ding" sound which usually signifies completion just before crashing. (That was on version ReplayMod_v1.10.2-2.0.0-b3) but I have tried on the latest version (ReplayMod-1.11-2.0.0-b4) but then it did not play the "ding" sound.

    I am using forge 1.11-13.19.0.2184 (Which is the only forge version which this version of the replay mod works on). I have the latest Minecraft-staging launcher using the inbuilt java (JRE-1.8.0_74). Along with that I am using the latest ffmpeg which I have tried reinstalling to no avail. I am using macOS Sierra (10.12.1) on a 27-inch iMac 2013. I have also tried other versions of java (outside of the launcher) also to no avail.

    Here we have a crash report

    This is a bug that haunts us since the original versions of the ReplayMod. Usually trying again should fix it. If it doesn't, please report back.

    Could you share your export.log in the .minecraft folder with us?

    Here is the export.log, I have tried like 20 times, always the same, it crashes at about 5 frames every time.

    Update: Just tried again, crashed once again.

    Your ffmpeg installation isn't made for MP4 export. Please try a different rendering preset, for example "Lossless (MKV)".

    Nope, MKV export didn't make a difference. I have rendered another video using the replay mod today actually. That used MP4 High Quality, (but it was a Normal Render). How can it work if it is not supported by ffmpeg.

    On another note: I am using an external path to link ffmpeg to the Replay Mod (/usr/local/bin/ffmpeg). Without that path, replay mod does not detect ffmpeg and keeps telling me that it is not installed which it obviously is. That path links to the same version of ffmpeg as in the export.log (3.2.2).

    Your export.log does not link to /usr/local/bin/ffmpeg though, but to /user/local/Cellar/ffmpeg/3.3.2/ffmpeg . Try setting this as the target executable.

    Hello! Sorry for taking such a long time. Apparently it just started working with the path /usr/local/bin/ffmpeg. I have no clue why it just suddenly started working. I tried with the other path as well but that returned an error that I didn't have ffmpeg installed. I even looked for the direct link to ffmpeg using finder and used that path which also returned that I didn't have ffmpeg installed. But yeah, it seems to work now! Weird..
