Please read the error messages yourself and try to understand them. The
input specifier "[in]" is invalid. FFmpeg does not know it. Use input
specifier like "[0:v:0]" to refer to the first video stream of the first
input file.

When the filter graph outputs the stream named "[out]" you can later
refer to that with "-map [out]".

(Note that I have not dug any deeper into your task of having side by
side videos. I'm just helping about this specific error.)
