Having trouble converting from DNxHD36 to h.264/mp4 and h.264/mov

Code used
> ffmpeg input.mov -strict -2 -b:v 8000K -vf format=yuv420p -c:a aac output.mp4

Picture comes out green or purple with horizontal lines

I'm on an older version MacOS (no choice.  Specs below).
I'm running same version MacOS on a different machine across town, where FFmpeg works just fine, so I'm curious what might be the cause of the problem.  Perhaps not installed correctly?

Including a screen grab here, but not sure if it will post...
