Ffmpeg sync error, first image showing really fast

I'm using Windows and FFmpeg for Windows.

My material are 8 images, with names like:

  • product0001img01.png
  • product0001img02.png
  • product0001img03.png
  • and so on

When I use KMPplayer or GOM, it's showing only product0001img02.png until product0001img08.png. I tried to upload it to YouTube, which gave me the same result.

But when playing it with KliteMegaCodec, all the images are loaded fine.

I use the following command:

ffmpeg -r 1/7 -i  "C:\Documents and Settings\admin\My Documents\Visual Studio 2008\Projects\WBAY\WBAY\bin\Debug\data\tempimages/product0001img%02d.png" -vcodec libx264 -y  "C:\Documents and Settings\admin\My Documents\Visual Studio 2008\Projects\WBAY\WBAY\bin\Debug\data\temp/product0001.mp4"

Here's the log:

  • If one player shows you all the images, they must be there. It could be a problem with B-pictures; try the command again with -profile:v baseline and see if that works for the other players, just as a test. Could you maybe upload a sample file for us somewhere? That'd be great.

  • @slhck test with your command, but still not getting better... Here youtubelinks, and in case you might need the images fileimages

  • Thanks for the sample. All works fine for me, with product0001img%01d.png as the input – %02d throws an error about a non valid range. Can you try ffmpeg -pattern_type glob -i "product0001img*.png" -c:v libx264 output.mp4?

  • Try with a more recent static Windows build, e.g. from Zeranoe: ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds — the globbing should be available in all recent FFmpeg versions.

If the end goal is to obtain a working mp4 from a series of images, an alternative to programming your own solution and using FFmpeg, you can use the free Windows Movie Maker (for Win7 and 8). The 2012 version (without the 'live" of the former version) outputs MP4 (for web and youtube) or AVI. It can convert a series of stills into a mp4. Once Movie Maker is installed, start a new project and add your PNG's. The default frame rate is 7 seconds per still image, but you can manually type in any value (.01 or greater). I was pleased to find this much easier and better quality than some of the other "images to video" conversion tools. (ImageMagick is another, similiar to FFmpeg).

  • I using C#, ffmpeg with process to build via commandline... Windows Live movie maker is GUI, :D

As mentioned by Karan, Its FFMPEG issue ( CMIW) FFmpeg is adding the first image to the video, just that the delay is so short it's not visible.

So I marking this as answers for my questions :)
