[Bug]: ProgressAction Parameter returns "Specified argument was out of the range of valid values. (Parameter 'index')"
Description
When I'm trying to suppress the progress bar (because I've wrapped my own around the function), the process is returning an error:
Convert-Media: Specified argument was out of the range of valid values. (Parameter 'index')
This has been attempted with the following file types:
- .avi
- .divx
- .m4v
- .mp4
All files convert without the -ProgressAction flag set. This appears to happen for any of the [ActionPreference] enumerations.
