I am trying to add black borders to an image sequence and cant seem to find
the right combination of parmeters:  I have tried many combinations and
parmenter order but just cant seem to make it work. Here is the latest try:

sudo ffmpeg -y -vf "pad:23:23" -i ./1080bars.mov  -vf
"drawtext=fontfile=./font.ttf:text="test":x=100:y=100:fontcolor=white:box=1:boxcolor=0x00000000 at 1"
-vcodec tiff ./test1/file%4d.tiff

Does adding borders even work in my version? Does anyone know how to do
this?
