There is another problem that I also noticed right away and that was that the output videos where not working in every program that I would use to playback a video.
After some quick research reading the manual page, and other sources I have found that I was just messing up with the order of the options and now I am getting a 20 second video for that specific collection of frames. For example I was creating an animation project that consisted of 600 image files, and at a frame rate of 30 the end result should be a 20 second video, but yet I was ending up with a 24 second video. One thing that I noticed is that the order in which options are passed is important, and can result in differing output results. I then Just wanted to create an mp4 video file from this collection of image files. When I was first starting out with ffmpeg I was in a situation in which I was using a program of mind that exports video as a collection of frames where I have a png file for each frame. 1 - Basic example of creating a video from a collection of frames There are just so many little uses cases that apply to one specif little thing, so then there is looking at various forums and blog posts such as this. However if you are like me then that of course is not the reason why you are here.
When it comes to really learning a thing or two about ffmpeg there is always the man page that helps. However often a great many of these video editing programs are for the most part just graphical front ends for ffmpeg which does all the leg work in the background. There are a lot of other great programs to work with in Linux to edit video though, such as OpenShot which is one of my favorite options thus far. So when it comes to just about anything video related in Linux this is the default goto solution for editing video from the command line. In addition I can create new frames or videos with ffmpeg with one or more filters applied to scale, crop, add noise and so much more as there is a whole lot to work with it. For example on top of creating a video from a whole bunch of frames in the form of image files, a new collection of frames can be made with ffmpeg from a video file also. The ffmpeg command can be used to create videos from a collection of frames, as well as a wide range of other tasks that have to do with video editing.
