Description

Summary of the bug:
when a external file is loaded to merge files the syntax 'inpoint' and 'outpoint' are not recognized by ffmpeg.
How to reproduce:

create an external concat txt file:

file 'C:\file_%04d.tif'
duration 00:00:04.080
inpoint 00:00:02.000
outpoint 00:00:03.000

load it in ffmpeg:

ffmpeg -i "input.txt" ...

following error pops up:

[concat @ 000000000466d780] Line 2: unknown keyword 'inpoint'
input.txt: Invalid data found when processing input

ups... input is...

ffmpeg -f concat -i "input.txt" ...

... of course

Please provide the full output of ffmpeg, not just the last two lines.

ffmpeg stops right away because of the input error, there is not more. it's a zeranoe build if that helps

"ffmpeg.exe" -f concat -i "D:\work\ffmpeg_concat_test.txt" ...  "D:\work\ffmpeg_concat_test.mp4"

there is no documentation on how to use the concat syntaxes. i just might use the 'inpoint' syntax wrong in the script file.

Replying to secondplace:

Yes, but there was output before the error, and that is what I wanted to see:

ffmpeg version N-71633-gcbe2700 Copyright (c) 2000-2015 the FFmpeg developers

(although the rest of the output would have been useful if my guess had been wrong)

Version N-71633-gcbe2700 dates back from 2015-04-22, inpoint/outpoint were implemented in July. You just need to upgrade.
