Those examples lack a `-f image2` option. I would expect that option to

is trying to explain?
FFmpeg probes the input to determine its format. Adding the `-f` option
for an input forces the use of that demuxer e.g.
with a MKV renamed to MP4, running
ffmpeg -i in.mp4
will still result in FFmpeg recognizing it as a Matroska file.
but
ffmpeg -f mp4 -i in.mp4
will force the MP4 demuxer, and FFmpeg will throw an error.
