convert a sequence of images to a video file
Hi, I would like to convert a series of images (png files) to a video. Would something like this work? ffmpeg -r 29.97 -i /images/picture%.png out.avi When I try the above, I get picture%d.jpg: I/O error occurred Usually that means that input file is truncated and/or corrupted. Thanks, Josh

nevermind, I need to do like a %03...where 03 is the number of pictures in the sequence

What's exactly the name of pictures ? if pitures' names are picture001.png (for example) you should use picture%03d.png. if the names are picture0001.png, use picture%04d.png, .......
I have a similar problem to this guy, but with JPG files. The JPGs are numbered 1.JPG to 297.JPG I'm trying to use the following command: ffmpeg -f image2 -i %0d.JPG -r 06 -sameq output.mp4 But getting the same error. Can ffmpeg turn jpgs into mpeg4 videos? thanks, Andrew -- View this message in context: http://ffmpeg-users.933282.n4.nabble.com/convert-a-sequence-of-images-to-a-v...

Yes, and here's a couple things to try: ffmpeg -f image2 -r 06 -i %d.JPG output.mp4 I moved the -r, so it applies to you input images, and dropped the sameq for test purposes. You can play with quality or bit-rate settings after you get some output. If the above doesn't work, try renaming your input files to three digits (001.JPG, 002.JPG ...) and use this: ffmpeg -f image2 -r 06 -i %03d.JPG output.mp4 HTH, Phil
am now just getting the codec error. installed mjpegtools, but still getting the same error. tried to do it with an alternative video codec and also didn't work. - A -- View this message in context: http://ffmpeg-users.933282.n4.nabble.com/convert-a-sequence-of-images-to-a-v...

Sounds like you are not specifying the codec you want. Try something like: ffmpeg -y -r 6 -i %02d.jpg -b 2400k -vcodec mpeg4 test.mp4 And as has been said by Phil, please cut and paste the complete command and output it generates from that command.

same error with %03d.JPG,&02d.JPG %d.JPG
try calling them something like foo-001.jpg foo-002.jpg etc... and then try ffmpeg -y -r 6 -i foo-%02d.jpg -b 2400k -vcodec mpeg4 test.mp4 if that fails, try ffmpeg -y -r 6 -f image2 -i foo-%02d.jpg -b 2400k -vcodec mpeg4 test.mp4

It certainly didn't (I've used the command I sent to create a sequence of JPEGs into a film in the past).
same errors again. Are you sure its foo-%02d.jpg and not foo-%02D.jpg Thanks? - Andrew

Yes. I cut/pasted the command from my internal wiki site where I capture all these obscure commands for future use.

FFmpeg won't read either of those sequences. Does anyone here understand the printf format? %d will read a regular sequence (i.e. 1 onwards). %03d will read a sequence with TWO leading zeros (i.e. 001 onwards, 010 onwards, 100 onwards). Then what will %06d do? Further requirements: The sequence must start with any of 0 1 2 3 4 The sequence must be continuous
I tried it with foo-%01d.jpg to foo-%08d.jpg and img%01d.jpg all the way to img%08d.jpg. it didn't work. Mencoder seems to be working though. On 2 Feb 2011 17:39, "James Darnley" <james.darnley at gmail.com> wrote:

Do either of those actually match your sequence?
For the ones named img001.jpg i believe the squence should be img%02d.jpg or img%03d.jpg, both were tried. On 2 Feb 2011 17:51, "James Darnley" <james.darnley at gmail.com> wrote:

There's a concept called 'zero-padding' that you need to understand. %04d means four digit padding. Meaning, the frame numbers are padded on the left with as many zeros as it takes to make the frame number four digits. It would read a sequence like... 0001.jpg ... 0099.jpg ... 0292.jpg It does NOT mean... 0001.jpg - 0000292.jpg A %06d would be... 000001.jpg ... 000099.jpg ... 000292.jpg Just a plain %d would match numbers with no padding like... 1.jpg ... 99.jpg ... 292.jpg
How about numbering sequence that doesn't start with 0 or 1? I have lots of file sequences that looks like this: sc_101a1050.png ... sc_101a1100.png Using sc_101a%04d.png gives me error: No such file or directory Please help.

In Windows, I suggest a rename utility, e.g. <http://fly.srk.fer.hr/~rajko/MRename/> Install, select last file, shift-click on first file, right-click and choose MRename. Enter IMG_\N400 as rename expression. Click "rename all" (files are renamed, so you may wish to work on copies). If you're on Linux, there's probably a one-line perl script to do the same thing... -- Andy

You can use the -start_number option: ffmpeg -start_number 1050 -i sc_101a%04d.png ... output Also see the -pattern_type option.

Ahhh ok i gotcha. So if i have 292 frames frame one should be 001.jpg and the last one just 292.jpg will try that. That would be %03d.jpg correct? On 2 Feb 2011 21:37, "Ronald S. Bultje" <rsbultje at gmail.com> wrote:

Yes. If you have them named 001 to 00292, you have two leading zeroes plus a digit without padding zeroes, so it'd be 00%d. If you have 001 to 292, it's %03d. Etcetera. Ronald
Gotcha so basicaly %03d.jpg means a 3 digit number so number one is 001 and the last frame 292. Basically all the frame numbers have to be three digits. On 2 Feb 2011 22:49, "Ronald S. Bultje" <rsbultje at gmail.com> wrote:
