Then the codec used had a bug, it happened on some devices with buggy firmware and it's hard to update them. Above error is the warning or the grey frames?.

a) If ffplay can play it well/correctly ffmpeg can transcode it without major issues.

b) If it's the grey frames, don't know how to fix it, sorry.

Some blindshoots with vlc:

c1) In vlc, go to ctrl+P 'preferences', select 'all settings' (bottom left), 'input/codecs', 'video codecs', 'ffmpeg', 'error resilience' set it to 4
c2) In vlc, go to ctrl+P 'preferences', select 'all settings', 'input/codecs', 'video codecs', 'ffmpeg', 'workaround bugs', try with values 2, 16 and 18

Also, with ctrl+M and setting to 1 or 2 the verbosity level you can see what vlc is doing and why.
