I am struggling to get ffmpeg to combine a bunch of images in to a video which have a format with a full 17 digit timestamp. 17 digits is well beyond what -i %d will support. So I want to use globbing to simply order them using full filename, however I keep getting the error:

[image2 @ 0000000002d0d1e0] Pattern type 'glob' was selected but globbing is not supported by this libavformat build

Does anyone know where I can get pre-built binaries to get around this problem? Here are example filenames I have:

Not a windows user, but ffmpeg supports reading data from an input stream.

In Linux, you can do something like: cat *.png | ffmpeg -framerate 10 -i - test.mp4

Looks like Powershell might let you do this.

From an answer at What is the Windows equivalent of the Unix command cat? , you might be able to use:

get-content *.png | ffmpeg -framerate 10 -i -
