A user sent me two clips and a screenshot. My video merge tool had run to 100%, said "Applying transitions…", and then thrown:

FS error: readFile 'merged.mp4'

Enter fullscreen mode

Exit fullscreen mode

The error is honest and useless. merged.mp4 does not exist. It does not say why, because by the time you ask, the thing that should have made it has already finished and moved on.
