ffmpeg isn't accepting "%d" format? - ffmpeg

So, I have a directory full of files named motor_animate_000.gif, motor_animate_001.gif, etc.
I run:
ffmpeg -r 30 -i motor_animate_%03d.gif -r 30 motor.mpg
I expect to get a file called motor.mpg, but instead I get the usual bunch of printout, ending with:
motor_animate_%03d.gif: No such file or directory
What? This worked in Ubuntu 14.04, but doesn't work now. What I'm doing appears to be consistent with the ffmpeg man page. I'm now officially clueless. Thanks in advance.
Here's what I get when I try the alternate suggested below:
tim#Servo:~/Documents/Movies/dcmotor/animation$ ffmpeg -f image2 -framerate 30 -i motor_animate_%03d.gif motor.mpg

The gif demuxer does not support a series of input files. You'll need to manually tell it to use the image file demuxer instead:
ffmpeg -f image2 -framerate 30 -i motor_animate_%03d.gif motor.mpg
The image file demuxer uses -framerate instead of -r.
You don't need to declare frame rate twice if you want to output to be the same as the input, so I removed the output -r.

What is the reason of the error?
As explained in this answer
"file-level concatenation (-f concat) requires all files in the listing to have the exact same codec parameters. "
In this case, the input files have codecs opus and vorbis.
To resolve the issue, I recreated some files (silence files) so they all have the same CODEC as the files I am mixing them with.
In particular, instead of creating them using:
ffmpeg -f lavfi -i anullsrc=r=48000:cl=mono -t 5.8 -c:a libvorbis silence-5.8.ogg
I use now (note libopus)
ffmpeg -f lavfi -i anullsrc=r=48000:cl=mono -t 5.8 -c:a libopus silence-5.8.ogg
And the "concat with ffmpeg" works without any problem.
I also tried
ffmpeg -f lavfi -i anullsrc=r=48000:cl=mono -t 5.8 -c:a opus silence-5.8.ogg
But that returns with
[opus # 0x5607f1765900] The encoder 'opus' is experimental but experimental codecs are not enabled, add '-strict -2' if you want to use it.
[opus # 0x5607f1765900] Alternatively use the non experimental encoder 'libopus'.
So, libopus works just fine (no need for opus)

I even tried like below.
ffmpeg -i my_srt.srt -y srt_to_ttml.ttml
It didn't work too.
It looks like ffmpeg 4.4 has minimal support for converting srt into ttml: font styles and positions are not preserved.
ttconv is an alternative.
The FFmpeg TTML muxer uses the .ttml extension:
ffmpeg -i input.srt output.ttml
The TTML encoder and muxer do not have any additional options as of writing this answer (see ffmpeg -h encoder=ttml & ffmpeg -h muxer=ttml).

FFMPEG Output to DeckLink Duo 2

Im trying to use FFMPEG to stream out to my Decklink duo 2 but im unable to do so.
Heres the command that im trying:
ffmpeg -f decklink -i "DeckLink Duo (1)#5"
-pix_fmt uyvy422 -r 25000/1000 "DeckLink Duo (3)"
I tried just sending color bars as an output but it still doesnt work
Command:
ffmpeg -f lavfi -i color=color=red -t 10000 "DeckLink Duo (3)"
Both Result:

DeckLink Duo (3): Invalid argument
Any Suggestions or help to solve this is much appreciated.
As the documentation says "DeckLink is very picky about the formats it supports. Pixel format is always uyvy422, framerate, field order and video size must be determined for your device with -list_formats 1. Audio sample rate is always 48 kHz.", see https://www.ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg-devices.html#decklink-1. So you need to add the resolution and make sure it is supported.
For the Duo 2 or Quad 2, You need to confirm in Desktop Video utility that you have assigned an SDI port to the channel, otherwise it may be in key/fill mode. This can be found in the third tab called "Connectors". If you can't select one (happens on device (2) or (4) if 1 or 3 are set to key/fill mode, you go back to 1 or 3 and change them to use a single connector.
That was the cause of my I/O error trying to use chanel (3).
