I try this command using ffmpeg for converting mp4 to hls
ffmpeg -i test_video.mp4 -y
-preset veryslow -keyint_min 100 -g 100 -sc_threshold 0 -r 25 -c:v libx264 -pix_fmt yuv420p

but I got this message
Stream map 'a:0' matches no streams. To ignore this, add a trailing '?' to the map.
so I tried to do it with the command:
ffmpeg -i test_video.mp4 -y
-preset veryslow -keyint_min 100 -g 100 -sc_threshold 0 -r 25 -c:v libx264 -pix_fmt yuv420p

and got this message:

the command:
ffprobe -i test_video.mp4
gave me this output:
