X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) ffmpeg error
- by Evan Carroll
I'm getting the following error message in ffmpeg:
X Error of failed request:  BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
  Major opcode of failed request:  140 (MIT-SHM)
  Minor opcode of failed request:  4 (X_ShmGetImage)
  Serial number of failed request:  11
  Current serial number in output stream:  11
I turns up when I run the bash function mentioned in a forum post about streaming in Linux.
What does it mean and how can I fix it?
