Concat multiple image sequences.

[reformstudios]

I'm attempting to concatenate two or more images sequences and transcode to h264.
The problem I am having is each source is set to start at 0, rather than one being added to the previous. My output video only shows the second sequence.

Is this possible? or do I need to do the transcode first, then run concat on the results with a simple copy as described in ticket : #137 ?

Here are my args prior to running the stream.
[u'-pattern_type', u'glob', u'-probesize', u'1000000', u'-r', u'25', u'-i', '/path_to/abcd_007_mat_0010_bg01_sony_4096_v001..exr', u'-pattern_type', u'glob', u'-probesize', u'1000000', u'-r', u'25', u'-i', '/path_to/abcd_014_bdy_0010_tp01_red_4096_v001..exr', u'-filter_complex', u'[0]scale=h=trunc(ih/2)*2:w=trunc(iw/2)*2[s0];[s0]colormatrix=dst=bt709:src=bt601[s1];[1]scale=h=trunc(ih/2)*2:w=trunc(iw/2)*2[s2];[s2]colormatrix=dst=bt709:src=bt601[s3];[s1][s3]concat=n=1:v=2[s4]', u'-map', u'[s4]', u'-c:v', u'libx264', u'-crf', u'10', u'-pix_fmt', u'yuv420p', u'-profile:v', u'high444', u'-threads', u'0', '/path_to/abcd_007_mat_0010_bg01_sony_4096_v001.seq_exr_to_h264.mp4']

Thanks again for your help!

Example for concatenating multiple image sequences:

input = ffmpeg.concat(
    ffmpeg.input('path/to/first/sequence/*.jpg', pattern_type='glob', framerate=24)
    ffmpeg.input('path/to/another/sequence/*.jpg', pattern_type='glob', framerate=24)
)
input.output(…).run(…)

[jtanman]

Is there a way to concat multiple glob inputs using command line? I'm trying this but with no luck. I'm trying variations of

ffmpeg -pattern_type glob -i 'Time Lapse 11/*.JPG' -pattern_type glob -i 'Burst Sequence 5/*.JPG' -pattern_type glob -i 'Burst Sequence 6/*.JPG' -r 24 -c:v libx264 -crf 23 -preset fast -pix_fmt yuv420p tl11_fast.mp4

with -f concat or using a file list as input, but haven't found anything that works yet.

Write it with ffmpeg-python (as shown above), and then use the get_args method to get the command that ffmpeg-python would use to steer ffmpeg. Or just do it with ffmpeg-python and do not worry about the actual ffmpeg command.
