I want to create a movie from a bunch of png's by using the command:
avconv -i pics/*.png out.mp4 or
ffmpeg -r 1/1 -start_number 1 -i pics/*.png -c:v libx264 -r 30 -pix_fmt yuv420p out.mp4 However, in both cases I get:
Error while opening encoder for output stream #18:0 - maybe incorrect parameters such as bit_rate, rate, width or height The complete log message for the second command is:
