Installing codecs for mov to mp4 conversion ffmpeg [closed]

I have been trying to convert a .mov file to a .mp4 file for a while now i think this is the correct code to do it.

ffmpeg  -i P1010989.MOV -vcodec copy -acodec copy out.mp4

But here is my output

Could not write header for output file #0 (incorrect codec parameters ?)

So i am trying to install the correct codecs and im a bit lost and do with some help.

Do i need to install the codecs separately and where do i download and install them from?

This is telling you not that the codec is missing, but that it is not compatible with the MP4 format.

You can fix this issue by using a different audio codec.

ffmpeg -i P1010989.MOV -vcodec copy -acodec aac -strict -2 -b:a 384k out.mp4
