MediaConvert Job failed for 12 hrs long video clipping(trimming)

Question

Hi,
I have 18 hours long video as input .mp4. I was trying to trim(clip) 12 hours video from input using AWS mediaconvert.

"InputClippings": [
          {
            "EndTimecode": "12:00:00:00",
            "StartTimecode": "00:00:00:00"
          }
        ],

But mediaconvert job keeps getting failed for video trimming for more than 12hrs. Please note that I have tried 10 hrs, 11 hrs and 11.5 hrs trimming and its all got successfully completed.
I have also verified "Timecode source: Start at 0" and "Timecode configuration -> Source: Start at 0".

Error code
1060
Error message
The clipping region [00:00:00:00] to [12:00:00:00] was not found in input number [1]

Accepted Answer

MediaConvert has a limit of clipping that needs to be under 12 hrs.
Please see this link towards the bottom.

Answer

Please submit an AWS Support ticket for this issue, with Job ID and Region job was run, so the logs can be reviewed.

Several things to consider:
- Try setting the input clipping end Time Code to 11:59:59:ff, where 'ff' = (1 - framerate of source file). Likely values for ff could be 29, 25 or 23.
- Can a clip be generated that spans the 12:00:00:00 Time Code? Ex. 11:00:00:00 - 13:00:00:00
- Try creating a proxy files using Time Code Burning (a Pro Tier feature) that spans the 12:00:00:00 TC. Could be combined with the clipping above. This will help determine that the TC is continuous and does contain the 12:00:00:00.
- Try entering the TC values as hh:mm:ss;ff, using ';' before the ff

Answer

I tried the different clipping end time code

11:59:59:00 => success
11:59:59;29 => success
12:00:00:00 => Failed
