Comment:

 > -i 00/* -r 25 result.mp4
 Considering for simplicity that directory `00` contains just two files
 named `0` and `1`, your shell would expands this part of the commandline
 to `-i 00/0 00/1 -r 25 result.mp4`, which means
 * one input: `00/0`
 * two outputs: `00/1` and `result.mp4`

 In other words, this is not a bug, has nothing to do with input files
 being corrupted, and did not ever do what you want unless the directory
 had just one file.
