How can I convert a series of images to WebM in FFmpeg?

Question

I’ve got a series of JPG images going from 108-AN-001 to 108-AN-045. I need to convert these into a single WebM video file.

I've tried this command:

ffmpeg -f image2 -i 108-AN-%03d.jpg -vf 12 output.webm

However, it would seem to be broken on Windows 7, as I get this error in the console:

[image2 @ 02d7f7c0] Could find no file with path '108-AN-C:\Users\Irastris\Desktop\Programs\FFMPEG\imagestoavi.bat3d.jpg' and index in the range 0-4

Can anyone help me?

Answer 1

%0 is being expanded to the name of your batch file instead of being passed to ffmpeg as a template for multiple filenames.

You should use a double percentage mark to prevent this: 108-AN-%%03d.jpg
