--- Removed the suspiciously small output check from the error detection. The script will: 1. No longer check if output files are suspiciously small 2. No longer flag this as an error 3. No longer count it in the issue summary The `format_file_size` function was also removed since it's no longer needed. The script now only checks for duration mismatches, missing video streams, resolution mismatches, and audio stream issues. ---
