You were unable to convince me that an improvement is possible and makes sense (would actually improve the documentation as opposed to just make it longer). You have now two possibilities: Either send a patch (made with "git format-patch") that contains your suggested improvements to the documentation to the development mailing list or we continue here to discuss that 1) the image2 demuxer does not support nearly all formats supported by FFmpeg but we cannot mention them all, 2) it is not true that "'%d' usually implies image2" (it never does, contrary to what was claimed in this thread) and 3) you request an additional example but you failed to provide a usecase that needs it (I know that an infinite number exists but since you provided only a use-case for not using the image2 demuxer it appears to me that an additional example - that by definition makes the documentation longer and therefore less readable - would not have helped you.
