When you use the concat demuxer , after "-i", (the input file(s)
option), don't use: *graph_%d.png*

Instead, use the name of the text file you've created that contains
either 1- or 2 entries for every image filename you wish to load. This
way, the group of image filenames does not need to be contiguous in its
numbering or start its numbering within 0-4 of the index value.

https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/Concatenate

If you look at my post you will see that I have presented a batchfile
called *create_list.bat*:

@echo off SETLOCAL EnableDelayedExpansion if exist mylist.txt del
mylist.txt for %%I in ("Sequence Directory\*.png") do (echo file '%%~fI'
>> mylist.txt & echo duration 0.04 >> mylist.txt) start /i mylist.txt

The way it is currently written, it looks a directory-level down from
the current directory for a sub-directory called "Sequence directory".
This is just an example. You could alter it to suit yourself.

In my example, I had create_list.bat and ffmpeg.exe in "C:\test
directory". So, when executing create_list.bat from there, it is looking
for all the .png files I've placed in "C:\test directory\Sequence
directory" and then creating a name-sorted list in the current directory
("C:\test directory") called *mylist.txt*. Finally, it was loading this
text file in the Windows-associated  program, notepad.exe., for
examination and modification*.  *This final step is an optional process.*
*

In my example, the first 4 image files in this sorted list which would
be read by the concat demuxer and loaded into ffmpeg were:

file 'C:\test directory\Sequence directory\Replacement.png' duration
0.04 file 'C:\test directory\Sequence directory\Sequence_0083.png'
duration 0.04 file 'C:\test directory\Sequence
directory\Sequence_0086.png' duration 0.04 file 'C:\test
directory\Sequence directory\Sequence_0089.png' duration 0.04

Once you have created your list of image filenames, you use it this way
(an example):*
*

*ffmpeg.exe -f concat -safe 0 -i "C:\test directory\mylist.txt" -maxrate
3k -y "C:\test directory\Sequence directory"\map_video6.mpg*

In your case your directory structure appears not to be separating your
working directory from your data (image) directory. This is OK if you
only a few image files, but gets messy when you have thousands of images.

Assuming you want create_list.bat to operate from the "animation3"
directory you would alter its contents to:

@echo off SETLOCAL EnableDelayedExpansion if exist mylist.txt del
mylist.txt for %%I in (*.png") do (echo file '%%~fI' >> mylist.txt &
echo duration 0.04 >> mylist.txt) start /i mylist.txt


And then your ffmpeg.exe command line would be:

***winexc "C:\Users\analyst\Desktop\STATA\projects\animation3\mylist.txt"
-maxrate 3k -y
"C:\Users\analyst\Desktop\STATA\projects\animation3\map_video1.mpg"*

I created a 1500x1000 1000-image set: Sequence_000.png ->
Sequence_999.png. This loads fine using at the start of the command line:

ffmpeg -i Sequence_%03d.png

This will also work if the sequence numbers are inside the filename:

ffmpeg -i 0191107-154%03d-214.png

But if you rename the first 5 files to:  _Sequence_000.png ... 
_Sequence_004.png it will fail because the first file starting with
Sequence is now Sequence_005.png.

Renaming _Sequence_004.png -> Sequence_004.png  will allow the remaining
995 files in the sequence to load.

If you can not batch rename the sequence to start from 00 or if it is a
non-contiguous list because you deleted some damaged/missing images, you
can tell FFMPEG to load a list of filenames. This has to be in a
particular 1 or 2-line format (if including  image duration).

For example, I've deleted the first 83 images, substituted a
Replacement.png, and the remaining image names jump by 3. Then I created
a list of filenames.

To create such a list in Windows, I use create_list.bat, here designed
to look in the "Sequence Directory", beneath the current directory
("C:\test directory"), where the images files are situated, create a
2-line name-sorted list where the 2nd line is the duration in secs (1
frame at 25fps = 40ms), and then load this list in the associated text
editor so you can delete or move blocks, change durations etc., if required.

@echo off
SETLOCAL EnableDelayedExpansion
if exist mylist.txt del mylist.txt
for %%I in ("Sequence Directory\*.png") do (echo file '%%~fI' >>
mylist.txt & echo duration 0.04 >> mylist.txt)  
start /i mylist.txt

The first 4 files in the list:

file 'C:\test directory\Sequence directory\Replacement.png' 
duration 0.04
file 'C:\test directory\Sequence directory\Sequence_0083.png' 
duration 0.04
file 'C:\test directory\Sequence directory\Sequence_0086.png' 
duration 0.04
file 'C:\test directory\Sequence directory\Sequence_0089.png' 
duration 0.04

If you decrease the duration below 0.04 @25fps FFMPEG will start to drop
frames. Conversely, if you go above 0.04, it will start to replicate frames.

To use this list:

ffmpeg.exe -f concat -safe 0 -i "C:\test directory\mylist.txt" -maxrate
3k -y "C:\test directory\Sequence directory"\map_video6.mpg

That tells you it is not finding the images.  Either the path, name, 
extesion, frame padding or start frame is wrong.  Without seeing the 
directory it is impossible for me to say what of that is wrong.

ffmpeg prints out a lot of information upon running, which can help in

Also, the second command is missing the frame specifier.  You only have

Hello,
Newbie alert!
I am unable to recreate an animation I found on stata blog
https://blog.stata.com/2014/03/24/how-to-create-animated-graphics-using-stata/
  .

local GraphPath "C:\Users\jch\AnimatedGraphics\example\"
winexec "C:\Program Files\FFmpeg\bin\ffmpeg.exe" -i `GraphPath'graph_%03d.png
 -b:v 512k `GraphPath'graph.mpg

  My code: ran without errors but no video was created
local GraphPath "C:\Users\analyst\Desktop\STATA\projects\animation\"
winexec "C:\FFmpeg\bin\ffmpeg.exe" -i `GraphPath'i_diff_%.png -b:v
`GraphPath'graph.mpg.

Any idea why mine isn't working? I use windows 10.
I have no idea about stata, but do you realize you posted two different 
commands?  Also, the second command is missing the value for -b:v.
