Output #0, image2, to 'heic.png':
  Metadata:
    major_brand     : heic

    encoder         : Lavf61.8.100
  Stream #0:0: Video: png, gray(pc, progressive), 2016x1512, q=2-31, 200 kb/s, 1 fps, 1 tbn

See the "Stream #0:49". By default, ffmpeg chooses the gray 2016x1512 hevc stream if you don't set manual maps.

[James]

Upon further inspection, the gray stream should not be selected by default by the CLI as it's the HDR gainmap.

Changing this to a feature request to merge and output the main image, and tag the HDR gainmap as such.

One way is

Get grid info

ffprobe -loglevel trace input.heic 2>&1 | grep  grid_row

Extract grid images

 ffmpeg -i input.heic -map 0 output_%d.png

Then
Merge

ffmpeg -i pngs/output_%d.png -vf "tile=8x6" final_output.png
